The Everett Police Department reported that over the summer an 11-year-old boy named Jeremy spent his allowance money to set up a lemonade stand outside his home in the city's Puget Sound region, about 25 miles north of Seattle.
"As he worked in the sun trying to earn a little extra spending money, he was approached by the pictured suspect, who offered him a 100-dollar bill for a drink but asked for exact change," police said in a statement released Thursday, which included a photo of the suspect.
The boy, police said, used his allowance money to give the man $85 in change.
When the man left, police said, the boy went to a local gas station where he learned the $100 bill was fake and he was out all of his allowance money.
