West Corners Counterfiet Money Suspect Arrested
Broome County Sheriff’s Officials say numerous tips from the public have come in following the publishing of surveillance photos of a man believed to have passed a fake $20 bill at the Sunoco Express on Route 26 in West Corners in the Town of Union September 17.
As a result, 43 year old Joseph Fassett of the Town of Fenton has been arrested and charged with criminal possession of a forged instrument and petit larceny.
Deputies say in the surveillance footage Fassett is also seen apparently stealing a package of beef jerky.
He’s being held in the Broome County Jail without bail.
