KITTANNING, Pa. (AP) — State police say a western Pennsylvania man has been charged with passing counterfeit $20 bills at a yard sale run by the wrong woman — a bank teller.
Trooper Terry Geibel says the teller is trained to know the look and feel of real money.
The (Kittanning) Leader-Times (http://bit.ly/10xMhoe ) reports that 40-year-old Gregory Douglas of Kittanning has been charged with forgery, a felony, and theft by deception, a misdemeanor. He remained jailed Friday on previous counterfeiting and other charges. There s no attorney listed for him in court records.
Amy Miller, the teller at Citizens Bank in Kittanning, tells the newspaper the bills weren t printed on "money paper. Compared to the other twenties in my bag, it was really white."
The trooper says the money was printed on resume paper.
