Eastchester Police say they arrested a man for trying to cash a $1,200 check that wasn't his, according to Lohud. The man, identified as 19-year-old Queens resident John M. Delvalle, was arrested at Eastchester's Chase Bank on New Rochelle Road.

Delvalle tried to cash the check of February 6 around 2:45 p.m. When bank workers wouldn't let him cash the check, he then tried to deposit it into a NYC woman's bank account. That's when people at the bank called the Eastchester Police Department. When Eastchester Police got to the bank, they called the woman whose bank account Delvalle was trying to deposit the check into. The woman told police that she didn't know Delvalle.
