(August 14, 2009) - Hillsboro police are investigating a string of forgeries in which at least 11 men cashed more than $20,000 in forged checks.

Police were alerted to the matter Friday at about 6 p.m.

Officers were told at least 11 suspects cashed checks in at least two different liquor stores, Cheers and Bottoms Up in Hillsboro sometime between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m, $10,000 in one store and $13,000 in another.
The checks looked like they came from the Universal Forest Products supplier company in Hillsboro and were about $1,000 each.

Police say the men were last seen in a white minivan or a black SUV.
