Minnesota Vikings outside linebacker Dallas Turner was allegedly a victim of a bank fraud scheme that resulted in the theft of $240,000.
"Through our investigation, several suspects have been identified, and we are working toward criminal charges to hold them accountable," Eagan (Minnesota) Police Sgt. Rich Evans said in a statement to ESPN. Approximately $2,500 of the stolen funds have been returned, Evans said, adding that it remains an active investigation.
According to a search warrant affidavit filed in Dakota County (Minnesota) District Court this week, Turner and his attorney contacted the Eagan Police Department in April to report the fraud.
