In an apparent
first for Peachtree City, police are looking for a Union City man who
has posed as a woman while writing over $11,000 in fake checks to stores
in the city.
The suspect
has been identified as Damian Anthony Mills, 32, who would sometimes wear
a dress or wig while writing phony checks with others account numbers
printed on them, according to police. Mills struck several retail stores
in the city, police said.
Mills faces
eight local arrest warrants for forgery in the first degree and financial
identity fraud; police said additional charges are expected.
"We have
really good pictures of him in the store," from the video surveillance
system, said Police Chief James Murray. "We have really good evidence
on him."
Mills appeared
to have a liking for nice and expensive female underwear judging by the
fraudulent purchases he made, Murray said.
Mills would
use a number of female identities while writing the phony checks, including
Chyna Blalock, Olivia Mills, Latrice Crosby, Wanda Palmer and Thia Robinson,
Murray said.
Peachtree City
detectives have been working the case with others from Atlanta, Fulton
County and Cobb County. Other jurisdictions also have warrants out for
Mills, Murray said.
Anyone with
information on Mills' whereabouts is asked to contact police at 770-631-2510.
"He'll
be arrested very shortly," Murray said, indicating that although
Mills moves frequently, detectives have a good idea of his whereabouts.
