Steinbach RCMP are asking the public to help identify a suspect who recently tried to make a purchase from a local convenience store with possible counterfeit currency.
On October 19, 2019, Steinbach RCMP received a report of a male suspect attempting to purchase items with a Canadian currency bill that appeared to be fake. The incident occurred at the 1st Choice Convenience store located on Main Street in Steinbach.
Police say that the male suspect was confronted by the clerk about the suspicious bill. At that point, the suspect did not make a purchase with the bill, but rather left the items at the store and drove away in a green GMC with an unknown license plate.
Steinbach RCMP are looking for more information that may help identify the male suspect associated with this potential crime.
If you have any information in regards to this incident, you are asked to contact the Steinbach RCMP Detachment at 204-326-4452 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477. You can also submit a tip online at manitobacrimestoppers.com.
