YAKIMA -- Yakima County sheriff's detectives are trying to identify a man who cashed stolen checks at a Union Gap bank.

The man was recorded making the transaction on the bank's video surveillance system.

Detectives released images from the video today in hopes of identifying the man.

The checks were stolen from a car in the Naches area in June and later cashed that month for a total value of $1,225, detectives said.

Anyone with tips on the man's identity can call Detective Jeff Perrault at 574-2565 or the main sheriff's office number at 574-2500.

Tips may also be reported to the Crimestoppers hotline at 800-248-9980. Callers may remain anonymous and may receive a reward if their information leads to an arrest and felony charges.
