Argument turns physical when son hits his father in the face

If someone asks you to cash a check and then give them the cash, don’t do it — risk of it being a scam is high!

Deputies responded to the substation at 12:42 p.m. Sept. 21 for a robbery complaint stemming from an incident in August.

A man, 18, had met with a friend from high school who said he needed help to deposit a check into the complainant’s account in the amount of $10,000.

The victim and the friend picked up an unknown male in Pontiac, at an unknown location, and drove to a bank in Southfield where the suspect turned over the check and the victim deposited it into his account.

Several days later, the three men withdrew the money and turned it over to the friend of the friend. The victim stated he was coerced into going along with the scam, stating he was in fear for his safety. This is the reason he gave for driving to his bank branch in Pontiac and Waterford to withdraw a total of $11,704 from his account and give it to the suspect.

The investigation continues as detectives sort out the report.
