Lincoln Police say a man cashed eight checks for $31,303.22 at eight different banks throughout Lincoln between November 16th and November 26.
“Each of the checks was written out to Jay Schultz on commercial accounts that were determined to be forged,” says Officer Erin Spilker. “Investigators reviewed video from these incidents and verified the person who passed the checks was 45-year-old Jay Schultz.”
On Thursday afternoon Schultz was arrested and booked on felony Theft by Deception and felony Forgery charges. Spilker says none of the money has been recovered.
