Swatara Police’s quick work Tuesday helped bust an organized crime group.
Just before 1 p.m., police were called to Metro Bank on Derry Street for a suspicious person trying to pass a check that tellers thought may have been counterfeit.
The individual was located, taken into custody and identified as Cody Taylor of Halifax.
An investigation found that Taylor was working with an organized crime group from North Carolina that was manufacturing counterfeit checks drawn on local businesses.
Information on Taylor’s vehicle led officers to a local motel, where two additional suspects, Erik Nelson and Jason Small, both of North Carolina were located and arrested.
Officers and detectives also found a third suspect from North Carolina at a local hotel, Davila Roseboro. Roseboro was arrested and multiple items of evidence was located and arrested.
Swatara Township Police request anyone with more information into this organized crime to contact them at 717-564-2550.
