The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office reports three men have been arrested for a multi-state counterfeit money ring.

Initially, the Sebastian Police Department received calls from Publix stores in Sebastian about a couple of men attempting to pass counterfeit $100 bills at their stores. 

The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office, Sebastian Police Department, and U.S. Secret Service coordinated the arrests, recovering dozens of counterfeit bills, Methamphetamine, and other paraphernalia.

  • Possession of Counterfeit Currency (three counts)
  • Possession of Methamphetamine
  • Total bond: $130,000
  • Contreras also has non-extraditable warrants out of Jacksonville, Florida, and the State of Tennessee related to fraud.

Ronny Camacho Aleman:

  • Organized Scheme to Defraud
  • Possession of Counterfeit Currency (three counts)
  • Utter Forged or Counterfeit Bill
  • Possession of Methamphetamine
