Two people are sought in connection to a counterfeit bill case at a southwest Salina convenience store.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning that on Sunday, a woman entered the Casey's General Store at 725 W. Schilling Road and purchased just under $9 worth of food items with a $100 bill. The clerk checked the bill with a counterfeit identification pen, but it didn't show as being counterfeit. Sunflower Bank later identified the bill as being counterfeit, Forrester said.

On Monday, a man entered the same Casey's and attempted to purchase a single item with a $100 bill. This time, the counterfeit identification pen did its job. When the clerk took the bill back to show the manager, the man fled, Forrester said.
