PEORIA, Ill. – What started out as one complaint of fraud allegedly by a local businessman resulted in the businessman being arrested on what Peoria Police say is sixteen felony counts of Deceptive Practices.
Peoria Police say Thomas Murray, 35, was arrested at his Pekin home Thursday.
Police believe following calls from a number of other potential victims, Murray — the former owner and operator of Murray Custom Cabinetry — defrauded people out of over $106,000 between June of 2020 and August of this year.
Murray is now being held in the Peoria County Jail.
No word on when he will be in court.
Police do say you can call them at (309) 673-4521, Crime Stoppers at (309) 673-9000, or Tip411 if you have information to aide in the investigation.
