Their Stimulus Check Arrived Early
From MSNBC:
A Pennsylvania couple is behind bars after police say they failed to call the bank when a glitch put an extra $175,000 in their account.
Authorities say 50-year-old Randy Pratt and 36-year-old Melissa Pratt instead withdrew the money, quit their jobs and moved to Florida.
They were buying a house in the Orlando area when the mistake was traced.
The two were arraigned Tuesday on theft and other charges and jailed in lieu of $100,000 bail. A public defender was being assigned.
A $1,772.50 deposit showed up in their FNB Bank account last summer as $177,250.
Police say Melissa Pratt said her husband, a roofing installer, often got large checks and she wasn't aware of any error
