Bradley Scott Dent, 40, of Sacramento was arrested on two felony counts of second-degree burglary and possession of a completed check with intent to defraud.
According to the CDI, Dent filed a claim with his carrier for damage done to his vehicle while parked. Dent was issued a check for $343 to repair the damage. After the check was cashed, it went through a reconciling procedure of checks and balances. The insurer noticed the check had been cashed for $3,000 more than the amount issued. Investigators allege Dent had altered the check by adding an additional “3” to the amount of $343, thus adding $3,000 to the original check.
