QUALICUM BEACH – Quick thinking by an Oceanside Mountie led to the arrest of two suspects accused of having counterfeit U-S money.
While investigating a robbery in Qualicum Beach August 2, the officer recognized a woman driving by in a van.
The 45-year-old from Coombs, well known to police, was arrested along with a 37-year-old man of no fixed address.
The arrests are related to an incident on July 12 when a 29-year-old man was picked up after allegedly using fake US bills at a French Creek business.
