Gibrill Diallo, 20, of New York was arrested Oct. 14 by Canadian border authorities while attempting to enter Canada and extradited to St. Lucie County on Oct. 21, according to the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office. He faces charges of money laundering, scheme to defraud, and grand theft stemming from a stolen check belonging to a Port St. Lucie real estate company that was fraudulently altered and deposited into an account established using a stolen identity. Detectives traced the funds through multiple bank accounts and Zelle transfers allegedly used to obscure the origin before depositing into Diallo's account.
