Philadelphia murder suspect caught after she allegedly passed phony $100 at mall

Middletown police nabbed who they thought was a woman passing counterfeit money at the Oxford Valley Mall. Turns out they captured one of Philadelphia's most wanted murder suspects, who has eluded police for more than two years.

A phony $ 100 bill is how police caught up with Nafeesah Terry, 22, of N. Preston Street in Philadelphia on Saturday afternoon.

Terry -- whom Philadelphia police called armed and dangerous -- is wanted in connection with the fatal shooting of 22-year-old Quinta Brown in the city's Hunting Park section and the attempted murder of Sherena Williams, according to the Philadelphia police website. Both incidents happened June 27, 2010, according to police.

Investigators say that Terry had argued with the murder victim earlier; then, Terry and her brother Ashia, then 18, ran into Brown on the street. The brother and sister allegedly pulled out guns and shot Brown several times in the chest, killing her.

Ashia Terry also is wanted by Philadelphia police in connection with Brown's murder, according to the website.

Terry's life on the run came to an end after Middletown police say that she bought children's clothes with two phony $ 100 bills at the Middletown shopping mall.

Shortly after noon, Middletown police responded to a call for a woman passing counterfeit money at the Sears store. The woman and a teen boy with her had purchased $ 14 worth of items, but when the clerk tested the $ 100 bill she paid with, it turned out to be fake, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Mall security kept the couple under surveillance while they waited at a bus stop until police arrived and detained them. A Sears loss prevention agent identified Terry and her male companion as the ones who passed the fake $ 100 bill.

Police searched the pair and found clothing and store bags on both of them and a small amount of marijuana on the boy. The merchandise and change from the fraudulent purchases, including a pair of $ 20.96 pants from GAP Kids, were returned to the stores where they were bought, according to court documents.

Police also recovered the two phony $ 100 bills used for the purchases, the affidavit said.

When police went to process the arrest, they learned Terry was wanted for murder and attempted murder in Philadelphia.

She was arraigned before Middletown District Judge John Kelly Jr. on first-degree misdemeanor charges of theft by deception and receiving stolen property, and sent to Bucks County prison in lieu of 10 percent of $ 200,000 bail.

The male will be charged in a separate criminal action, according to court documents.

The song appears on Factor's latest album "Lawson Graham" available for purchase here: www.circleintosquare.com LYRICS: Will we capsize gently or will we howl in fear? as the microscopic salt water animals fill our ears... we can hold our breath our cheeks balloon.... but every proper captain's ready for a typhoon Michael Jackson was declared dead at dusk and nobody gave a fuck. Everybody could have sworn it was a stupid but incredibly conceived stunt. but the conspiracy theorists started coming up with the most unbelievable scenarios about masons, reptilians,and jacko seances with chimps and children the media outlets started to question if it was a hoax so they cautiously played Jackson 5 greatest hits on the outros of their shows and didn't even let out a whimper til the coroner leaked out the pictures of the king of pop's body bloated and rotting wearing a crown in the LA River. Will we capsize gently or will we howl in fear? as the microscopic salt water animals fill our ears... we can hold our breath our cheeks balloon.... but every proper captain's ready for a typhoon Big Baby Jesus I've encountered demons and the mountains are covered in semen while our communist daughters are falling asleep dreaming of a life with reason but the light seems dim around these lives and religion was never precise so ...
