CASCO, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Four men have been arrested for allegedly trying to cash a fraudulent check at two Kewaunee County banks.

The men left the bank and were picked up by three people waiting down the road in an SUV.
The Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department and Wisconsin State Patrol stopped the vehicle and arrested the four men.
Sheriff’s officials are recommending a 63-year-old Green Bay man be charged with forging checks. They recommend two 30-year-old Georgia men and a 34-year-old Georgia man be charged with being a party to the crime.
