Two suspects in a fraudulent check cashing scheme that targeted a bank in Waterboro and other banks in the area were identified by the York County Sheriff’s Office on Monday.

The York County Sheriff’s Office say they were called to Partners Bank in Waterboro in January for a report of two males attempting to cash forged checks from a business in New Hampshire.

By the time deputies arrived at the bank, the suspects had already left after cashing one forged check in the amount of $1,800.

Upon further investigation, law enforcement learned that the two male suspects had visited several other banks in the area, attempting to cash fraudulent checks.

Based on what is currently known, the two suspects were successfully able to cash $11,063 from forged checks, the Sheriff’s Office says.

On Monday, the Sheriff’s Office announced that they had identified the two male suspects as 57-year-old Orlando Rodriguez of Smithfield, R.I., and 54-year-old Wilford Lee Rhodes of Mattapan, Mass.

Warrants were issued for the arrest of both suspects, and Rodriguez was taken into custody in Providence, R.I, last Friday, Feb. 28.

Rodriguez is being held in Rhode Island pending his extradition back to Maine.

The second suspect, Wilford Rhodes, is still at large.

The York County Sheriff’s Office says additional charges against the two suspects are expected from area agencies.
