Forgery, Theft By Deception Warrant, July 10, 2024, S&T Bank at 1683 Oregon Pk (MT) – Jason Michael McClellan, M/47, of Highspire, PA was charged with the above offenses following the report of a forgery. A witness informed the police that McClellan successfully cashed a fraudulent $2,660.17 payroll check. The check was in sequence of previous payroll checks and did not raise any concern at the time. The witness then received an email, from another branch of the bank, informing them of a forgery. At this branch, McClellan was informed that they would need to confirm the check with the business. McClellan asked for the check and his PA driver’s license back and left the bank. The business of the payroll check was contacted. They confirmed that McClellan does not and has not ever worked for them and they did not write the checks out to him. McClellan was positively identified through surveillance footage and a search of PennDOT records. The checks were made out to McClellan and matched the address on his driver’s license, given to S&T Bank to cash the checks.

A criminal complaint was filed, and an arrest warrant obtained. Jason Michael McClellan remains a wanted person at this time.
