Have you looked at that small complaint from earlier today that our dispatch took?
00:09
I'm actually on the phone now with Firelands.
00:12
Give me one second, and then if you can call station, I can fill you in.
00:16
It sounds like it's not going to be, it's going to be the same report,
00:21
but Firelands here does not need a separate report.
00:23
Nothing happened here in Bellevue of Firelands.
00:25
It was just Croghan.
00:28
Correct. That suspect is in the parking lot.
00:33
The parking lot at your location?
00:37
April.
00:39
That's clear.
00:45
The person I was speaking with at Firelands advise that if you have that subject there, he's probably going to attempt to cash another check that's fraudulent as well.
00:55
They have one that isn't unaccounted for.

Okay, I'm meeting with that suspect and the Brantown Bank Manager right now.
01:05
That's clear, Rick.
01:09
Go ahead.
01:10
I confirm that Firelands doesn't need to make a report.
01:13
Is it okay to just close this out? Do you want a report attached to it?
01:18
Yeah, you can attach it.
01:20
Or if you close it out, I will attach it on my end.
01:25
That's clear.
01:28
Did you say that there's still a missing check?

Affirmative.

The Firelands handles the checks for Croghan, and they advise that there's one more check issued to that subject that is outstanding that hasn't been cashed yet.

They believe he may be at Croghan now trying to cash it can be tried in Norwalk, and they denied it.
