Is there anyplace to report unauthorized bank withdrawls?

Question

Okay so I have a very complicated situation.

My grandfather, for the past several years, has given PARTIAL power of attorney to one of my Uncles. Gramps SSN check is deposited every month into his bank account. My Uncle made my grandfather give him his checkbook and allows my Uncle to draw on his account.

What is happening is that my Uncle only allows my grandfather to use so much money per month. (around 30 dollars) he is not given or allowed any cash other than what he can scrape together. 
What I THINK is happening is that my Uncle is writing checks out of Gramp's account to pay for his things he wants. (Such as a trip down to the Supper Bowl) 

I don't know if their is a place where this can be reported to. He lives in Oregon and I live out here in the midwest. I see him once a year and I am sooo frustrated that I cant do anything. 

Does anyone know of an area where this can be reported?

you will have to take your grandfather to the bank where he has the account and get everything changed, 

this probably wont stop your uncle asking why he has done this and might just end up in the same situation he is in now.

the only other thing that could be done is to make a police report, but since he has power of attorney and your grandfather has allowed him to take money there is probably nothing that can be done.

Report it to the police. The will investigate the case. Your grandfather is a witness. Your uncle controlling your grandfathers money is elder abuse.
