Police: Woman Arrested for Using Forged Documents at Greenvale Bank

A 54-year-old woman was arrested after police say she attempted to withdraw money from an account using forged documents at a bank in Greenvale on Tuesday at 5:10 p.m.

Kathleen S. Morrison, of Manhattan, entered Wells Fargo Bank, 9 Northern Boulevard, and attempted to withdraw money from a California woman’s account by showing the teller a forged driver’s license and a signed slip in the victim’s name, police said.

Authorities were called in for an investigation and discovered that Morrison was in possession of a forged driver’s license and a forged Capital One credit card, police said.

Police reported the woman also withdrew $2,500 from a Wells Fargo Bank in Garden City Park using forged documents earlier in the day. The money was not recovered.

Morrison was placed under arrest without incident and was charged with second degree forgery, two counts of second degree possession of a forged instrument, first degree identity theft and fourth degree grand larceny.

She will be arraigned at First District Court in Hempstead on Wednesday.
