Graves County Sheriff Dewayne Redmon says deputies were dispatched to the Dollar General Store on State Route 131, after receiving a report about a man trying to pass off counterfeit money. While deputies were turning onto State Route 131, the caller told police that the man had left in a tan Toyota Camry, and headed toward State Route 58.
Deputies stopped the car at the intersection of State Route 58 East and Sherwood Drive. The driver, Kalab Mosley, had a bench warrant out of Christian County. He was placed under arrest for the warrant.
Deputies obtained consent to search the car, and during the search, they found a paper cutter, an empty box of resume paper and several counterfeit $20 bills in the backseat floorboard. Deputies said Laquinton Tillman was sitting in the backseat of the car, with the counterfeit bills at his feet.
Tillman was placed under arrest and lodged in the Graves County Jail. Police said Tillman had two warrants out of Christian County. He was also charged with seven counts of criminal possession of a forged instrument.
