Police arrested Sharod Mitchell, 19, of Forest City, Arhtiando Phillips, 21 of Shelby and Sarah Colon, 19, of Cherryville, after witnesses identified them as using fake $20 bills at the amusement park’s games.

The trio have all been charged with forgery and criminal conspiracy according to York County Sheriff office documents.

All three remain in custody at the Moss Justice Center Sunday and deny any involvement. Deputies found $1,175 on the group and two of the original bills that had been duplicated were among the cash found police said.

Deputies also found evidence in Colon’s car in the parking lot.

Carowinds security said they expect to find more then just the 37 counterfeit $20 bills that had been used at the park Saturday.

All three have banned from Carowinds.
