The Oromocto RCMP is asking for the public's help to identify a person of interest in connection with a counterfeit money investigation in the community.
On July 19, 2023, a man entered a business on Miramichi Road in Oromocto, and purchased more than $200 worth of merchandise using counterfeit American money. The man then left the business in a white Honda Civic that was later recovered by police on July 28.
Police are releasing surveillance footage photos in hopes that someone may recognize him. The man is described as being in his early to mid-thirties, with brown hair and a short brown beard. He was wearing a black jacket with a pink shirt, jeans, and black shoes.
Anyone who recognizes the man, or who has information that could help further the investigation, is asked to contact the Oromocto RCMP at 506-357-4300. Information can also be provided anonymously through Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), by downloading the secure P3 Mobile App, or by Secure Web Tips at www.crimenb.ca
The investigation is ongoing.
