Skrine was already facing 15 bank fraud charges. Canadian police accuse him of defrauding banks of more than $100,000 with fraudulent checks to open accounts and withdraw money before they were cleared.
Skrine, a fifth-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in the 2011 NFL Draft, would allegedly tell the banks he was a “former NFL player.”
