False Police Report

Reported: Feb. 11, 2020, 12.33 pm, Date Occurred: Oct. 13, 2016 – Oct. 24, 2016, Case Open

Campus police are determining whether or not to press charges of fraud against a former student who claimed they never received a check from financial aid that was due to them back in 2016.

The claim came when the student requested their transcript from WCC, but the college could not complete the request due to the hold on their account. The hold concerned a check for financial aid that was never returned after the individual dropped out halfway through the semester.

The student claimed that they never received the check, but it was determined that the check had been cashed in 2016. The student claimed they forgot about cashing the check.
