Carlos Miller

That on April 30, 2026, at approximately 3:01 P.M., officers were dispatched to BMO Bank, located at [address omitted] in Rogers, Hennepin County, Minnesota, to investigate a check forgery in progress. In route, officers were advised a male, subsequently identified as CARLOS MILLER, hereafter defendant, had already been to multiple BMO Banks attempting to pass a fraudulent check and was now trying to pass the check at the Rogers branch. Upon arrival, officers were directed to defendant, who was still inside the bank.

Officers asked defendant to identify himself and defendant presented a Nebraska Driver's License bearing the name "Robert James Conover, [DOB redacted]." Defendant then attempted to walk past officers. Officers advised defendant he was not free to leave. Defendant then became physical with officers, balling up his fist and raising it, and then physically resisted efforts to detain and handcuff him. Officers subdued defendant and handcuffed him. Officers learned from bank tellers that defendant arrived at the above-listed bank, presented a check made payable to "Robert Conover" in the amount of $8,600.00, and requested it be cashed.

The check was written from the account of N. E. P., who resides in Wisconsin. Officers spoke with N. E. P. And learned she did not issue a check to "Robert James Conover" in that amount, and that there had been multiple instances of fraud on her account. Officers were then able to identify defendant by proper name and confirm he is not "Robert James Conover, [DOB redacted]." At present, defendant is in custody.
