Posted

Funny money is circulating in Stuart and police say they are trying to find the man they suspect of using it.

Investigators say on March 15, the man went to Carrabba's Italian Grill, Winn-Dixie, Bonefish Grill, Publix and West Marine and made purchases using fake $100 bills.

They say he bought low-priced items so he could pocket the change.

He was seen leaving in a dark-colored sedan.

If you recognize him you are asked to call Stuart Police officer Angervil at 772-287-1122.
