Counterfeit Money Found in Bath Stores; Police Say Connected to Fairlawn Case
Information provided by the Bath Township Police Department.
Two Montrose stores reported finding fake $100 bills in their cash drawers in the same week, according to a Bath Township police report.
On Dec. 3, Mustard Seed Market employees called to report the fake bill, a report stated. Later that week, on Dec. 8, the manager at Shell True North found one in her cash drawer.
Both bills were sent to the United States Secret Service, the report stated.
Police Chief Michael McNeely said he suspects these cases are linked to the case at Macy's in Summit Mall, where police arrested a woman with 13 counterfeit 100s.
In each case, the suspect made a small purchase and paid with a $100 bill to get the change back, McNeely said.
Detectives are investigating.
