Orangetown Cops Make Arrest In Forged Check Case

ORANGETOWN, NY — Police made an arrest this week in connection with a forged check incident from earlier in November. A New York City man faces charges in Orangetown Town Court.

Craig L. McMillian Jr. entered the Key Bank on Dutch Hill Road Nov. 10 and cashed a check drawn on a Key Bank client's account, police allege.

When the client realized money had been mysteriously deducted from his account, he called the bank and police began to investigate.

They obtained a photo, and then with the help of New Jersey police departments, they identified a suspect.

McMillian turned himself in and was charged with grand larceny and criminal possession of a forged instrument. He posted $1,000 bail and was released.
