Andalusia, Al.
Area merchants and residents are warned to be on the look out for a serial bad check writer.
Sklyar  Whitney Hill, 24, of Andalusia, is wanted on 16 counts of negotiating a  worthless instrument, or “bad checks,” after purchasing nearly $3,000  of merchandise without having money in the bank to cover the costs, said  District Attorney’s Office Investigator Max Smith.
“And  it wasn’t at one particular store, either,” Smith said of the  purchases. “It was from all parts of the county, including Florala. When  you add the court costs of each of those checks, she’s looking at a  total right now of $10,907.
“Because of the volume of bad checks  written by Ms. Hill in recent months, we strongly discourage any  Covington County merchant from accepting checks from her,” he said.  “We’re asking that owners put up her picture where cashiers can see it,  so maybe she won’t slip in and cost the business owner more money.”
Smith said anyone with information on Hill’s whereabouts is asked to call the 911 Center at 334-428-2447.
