HENNEPIN AND SCOTT COUNTIES, MINNESOTA — Caleb Bradley Krusemark, a 33-year-old resident of Jordan, Minnesota, faces multiple felony charges across Hennepin and Scott counties for a series of alleged fraudulent activities involving forged checks, theft by swindle, and attempts to defraud individuals and businesses. Below, we touch on some ongoing allegations against Krusemark and begin digging through his past financial civil cases. We will provide additional updates as we continue to investigate this story further.
On July 23, 2024, law enforcement responded to a report of check fraud at a car dealership in Edina. According to the dealership manager, Krusemark allegedly purchased a 2023 Cadillac Escalade on July 17, 2024, using an alleged forged cashier’s check purportedly issued by Wells Fargo for $95,495.42.
The dealership accepted the check as Krusemark had also brought in a vehicle for service, appearing to be a legitimate customer. However, the check was later discovered to be allegedly fraudulent, with no associated account at Wells Fargo. The Escalade was subsequently recovered from Krusemark’s residence in Lakeville, and he was arrested.
