After being charged with stealing credit cards and checks from homes where he had been hired to do work, a Highland Township man is due back in court next week.
33-year-old Kenneth Michael Hill was charged last month with three counts of uttering and publishing, two counts of larceny from a building, forgery, attempted larceny of $20,000 or more, and fraudulent use of a financial transaction device.
The charges stem from two different cases. The first case involved the theft of five checks from a woman, who said four were forged for just over $10,000 using her husband s signature. Hill is also alleged to have created a fake email account using her husbandâs name in a failed attempt to purchase more than $26,000 of merchandise from Ohio Power Tool.
