By Ben Olson Reader Staff A wave of counterfeit $20 bills have been reported in various locations around Sandpoint and Sagle....Here's a more detailed description of the alleged counterfeiter:
5'6" or 5'7" with mousy brown hair, around 130-40 pounds with a piercing above left eyebrow and one in her lip. She had a swastika tattoo on her left breast with a lightning bolt through it.
She was accompanied by child 11 or 12 years old who was wearing a soft helmet that a child with seizures would wear.
If you see a person who matches that description, call 911 immediately.
-BO
ATTENTION: There have been reports of counterfeit $20 bills being passed around Sandpoint. Over $300 was reportedly used at the Farmers' Market this morning, as well as Starbucks.
The culprit was identified as a female with a swastika tattoo on her chest or shoulder. The bills have a blueish tinted and may feel slightly like flannel. Be cautious and call the police if you come across any suspicious bills. We'll update with more information soon.
