Calcasieu authorities searching for men suspected of cashing forged checks
LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - UPDATE: The Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office has corrected its original statement, now saying that the checks were cashed rather than deposited.
The following article has been updated with this correction.
Authorities are searching for two suspects who they say cashed forged checks at several banks in Calcasieu Parish.
Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office detectives received a report of forgery on July 18 and connected it to other incidents in the area, spokesperson Kayla Vincent said.
The DeQuincy Police Department investigated one of the incidents and found the suspects’ vehicle, Vincent said. Officers chased the car into Texas but eventually stopped the pursuit due to unsafe conditions.
CPSO detectives have not been able to identify the suspects seen in the image below. Anyone who can help identify them or the car is asked to call detectives at 337-491-3605.
