ACKERMAN, Miss. (WTVA) - Local police officers confiscated thousands of dollars worth of fake money on Tuesday after a man tried using some of it at a local convenient store.
The Ackerman Police Department arrested 38-year-old Jonathan Wells after confiscating nearly 8-thousand dollars worth of counterfeit money.
“Basically this was just ordered offline, said Ackerman Police Chief, Tim Cook. Then they just took the time to go and just see if they would be checked when they purchased something at the store.”
