Orange and Pinehurst police in the past week have had reports of counterfeit bills, mostly $100 but also $20. Some of the bills have been found by clerk’s using the special pens that detect fake money. Orange Detective Captain Robert Enmon said some of the people trying to use the fake bills have been surprised. He said one of the bills was obviously fake because it was not printed on the cotton-rich material used for U.S. currency.
Pinehurst Police Chief Fred Hanauer said a woman tried to pass a counterfeit bill at the Dollar Tree store off Strickland Drive Friday night. Anyone with information about the counterfeit bills should contact their local law agency.
