3 suspected of passing fake $20 bills

Advertiser Staff

Three men, ages 19, 18 and 23, were arrested at a Honolulu night club early this morning after each allegedly paid for drinks with counterfeit $20 bills.

Police said the three tried to flee after the bartender, 27, told them the bills were fake, but the 19-year-old was caught and held by security guards until police arrived shortly after 1 a.m. at Lulu's.

The other two suspects were identified and later turned themselves in. They are suspected of first-degree forgery.
