Fraud Investigation Man Arrested After Trying to Scam Lexington Businesses

A man was arrested Friday after police say he scammed a Dairy Queen and tried to do the same at a Subway nearby.

Police said the man went to the Dairy Queen at Reynolds & Lansdowne and payed with what looked like a roll of dimes. But in reality, the dimes were only on each end of the roll and the rest was filled with pennies. An employee at DQ only realized it after the man was gone from the store.

Police said the same suspect then went to the Subway on Reynolds and tried to do the same thing, but the Subway employee opened the rolls while the suspect was in there.

He ran off when police were called.

A car matching the description given to police was seen headed toward Dairy Queen and an officer investigating the incident stopped the vehicle.

Police said the man had an active warrant from U.S. Marshals Office. They did not give any other details on that warrant, and they have not released the suspect’s name.
