Windsor police also arrested and charged a 39-year-old man in connection to a bank fraud investigation.
The suspect is alleged to have entered a financial institution in the 3200 block of Dougall Avenue on Tuesday and presented a fraudulent bank draft, valued at more than $100,000, in an attempt to purchase a gold bar.
The employee was suspicious of the bank draft and asked the suspect to return the next day to complete the transaction.

When the suspect returned Wednesday, he was arrested.
The man has been charged with uttering a forged document, fraud over $5,000 and possession of fraudulent identification.
