Three suspects were arrested by the Thurston County Sheriff’s office for fraud and extortion involving an elderly victim.  The suspects told the victim his mobile home needed to be demolished, and attempted to sell him a replacement mobile home, asking for more and more money, but never producing the home.

The suspects are believed to have victims in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and New Mexico, possibly promising asphalt, roof work, or pressure washing.  They drove a white Dodge Ram pickup with a temporary Oregon plate.
