A clerk at the Lusby Fastop on H.G. Trueman Road called police January 23 at 4:45 p.m. after a man tried to pay for gas using a counterfeit twenty dollar bill. Cpl. A. Moschetto arrived and made contact with the man, later identified as William Joseph Marshall, 28 of Lusby.
Marshall initially advised that he didn’t realize the currency was fake; however, he then changed his story and said another man he knew had been making the counterfeit money and had left the paper used to make the bills at his house.
Marshall then offered to show officers the paper at his house. Moschetto then accompanied Marshall to his house where the paper used to print the counterfeit bills was located.
Marshall was arrested and charged with making currency image with the intent to defraud and possessing/issuing forged currency.
