UTICA, NY – On Thursday, May 18, the Utica Police Department was called to Adirondack Bank following a report of fraudulent activity.
Upon their arrival, bank personnel reported that an individual named Detron Brown had allegedly opened an account and deposited checks totaling over $4000.
The next day, the sum of money was withdrawn from the account. The bank subsequently discovered that the deposited checks were fraudulent, leaving them at a loss for several thousand dollars.
The investigation was passed to a member of the Criminal Investigations Division. This led to the arrest of 32-year-old Detron Brown, of Utica, on last Thursday.
Brown is currently facing charges of grand larceny in the third degree and criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second degree.
