Easton, MD - A Cambridge man is facing multiple charges after allegedly cashing a fraudulent check at a local bank, according to the Easton Police Department.

On April 2, 2026, Easton Police arrested Da'Jhon E. Macer, 23, of Cambridge, Maryland, on an arrest warrant. The warrant charges him with Theft $1,500-$25,000, Forgery and Counterfeit of Private Documents, Issuing a False Document, and Issuing a Counterfeit Order.

During the arrest process, officers ran a routine check and discovered Macer also had an active arrest warrant out of Caroline County. He was later released into the custody of the Talbot County Detention Center.

The charges stem from an incident at a local bank. On June 6, 2025, officers responded to the bank after staff reached out to report a problem. Employees told officers that Macer had come into the bank and cashed a fraudulent check in the amount of $2,700.00.

Fraud cases like this one can have a direct impact on local businesses and financial institutions in our community. Banks and their employees are often the last line of defense in catching these types of crimes before money leaves the building.

The Easton Police Department has not released additional details about the investigation at this time. It is unclear whether the case involves any other victims or additional incidents.
