Couple charged with counterfeit money
Police have charged a man and woman after seizing more than $2,000 in counterfeit money last week.
London police arrested the two suspects, Darryl Shoebottom, 36, and Barbara Crafts, 35, on outstanding warrants, July 20.
"As a result of this arrest they are both being charged jointly with possession of counterfeit money under Section 450(b) of the Criminal Code," police said, adding the $2,000-plus dollars in counterfeit money seized was in various denominations.
"While the incidents of counterfeit money in the London area have declined merchants are reminded to be vigilant," police said.
Shoebottom is additionally facing four drug charges in relation to drugs obtained using fake prescriptions, police said.
