Ponca City Police responded to two calls Tuesday from a convenience store which reported receiving counterfeit bills.

The first call came from a clerk of a convenience store in the 400 block of South 14th Street at 7:21 a.m. The second call came in at 9:41 a.m. from the same store, reporting that they’d received another counterfeit bill.

Four subjects were arrested from a motel nearby and are being held on complaints of possession of methamphetamines and possession of paraphernalia.

Jonathan J Koppel, 30 of Stillwater, Jeanette M Roberts, 23, Brittany N Raulston, 29, and Joseph L. Lucas, 37, all of Ponca City, were arrested on those complaints. Lucas also had two outstanding municipal warrants for failure to pay.

Officers found counterfeit bills while booking Lucas. The investigation continues.
