Former Blue Fin cook charged for forgery

LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - A former cook at Lafayette's Blue Fin Bistro restaurant faces six felony charges, for allegedly forging multiple checks from his employer.

26-year-old Nicholas Burroughs' charges include three counts each of forgery and theft.

Court documents say a manager at Blue Fin reported to police that at least two checks had been stolen from the restaurant and forged, totalling about $6,000.

A police investigation found security footage of what appeared to be Burroughs cashing the checks at a Huntington Bank.
