Iowa man sentenced for counterfeiting

A southwest Iowa man has been sentenced to six
months in prison for counterfeiting U.S. currency.

Federal prosecutors for Iowa say 26-year-old Alexander Sterling Potter Milledge
was sentenced last week in Council Bluffs' federal courthouse.

Prosecutors say last March, Clarinda police were called to a convenience store
for a fake bill. Police determined through surveillance video that Milledge had
passed the counterfeit bill, and a search warrant was obtained for his home.
Police say the search turned up numerous computers, printers, printer paper and
approximately $35,000 in counterfeit bills in different stages of manufacturing.
