New Jersey man accused of passing fake $100 bills in Pittsfield

Pittsfield Police have arrested a New Jersey man they said was passing fake $100 bills.

Police had put out a call for the suspect on Facebook last week.

This suspect, who police did not name, was also a person of interest in several other recent counterfeit $100 bill cases in Berkshire County, as well as Hamden County and Connecticut.

Officers found more than a dozen other counterfeit $100 bills with the same serial number during the arrest, they said.
