[May 09, 2009]  NEWARK, Del. (AP) -- Police said a 20-year-old man was charged with stealing one of his boss' checks and trying to cash it.

The owner of the Dog Days Deli in Newark called police Thursday after a bank notified him that one of his employees was trying to cash one of his checks in the amount of $978. Police said the employee took the check on Monday, then forged the deli owner's signature.

When the teller would not cash the check because the signature couldn't be verified, police said the employee produced his own identification hoping to have the transaction go through. Instead, the bank notified the deli owner.

Troopers arrested the suspect and he was released on $450 bond on charges of felony forgery, theft and attempted theft.
