Man booked for stolen checks, credit cards

A man was arrested after stolen checks and credit cards were found in his wallet during an investigation.

Spokane County sheriff's deputies were called to 12516 E. 30th Ave. on Saturday to investigate a fight.

The woman who lived there with her ex-boyfriend gave deputies permission to search the house, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Deputy John M. Lammers checked the ex-boyfriend, John Franklin Jay Johnson, 25, through police records and found he had outstanding warrants for possessing marijuana and drug paraphernalia and for having a suspended license.

During a search, deputies allegedly found three checks and a credit card inside Johnson's wallet in different people's names. Deputy Darin Staley began to contact the owners and determined the checks had been stolen, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Johnson was booked into the Spokane County Jail on a charge of second degree posession of stolen property, a felony.
