2 accused of taking bank numbers at kids hospital

Posted: Updated:

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Two men have been indicted on charges of stealing bank account numbers from people who paid to park at a children's hospital in Jackson.

A federal indictment says Timothy McGee and Robert McCullum used the account numbers that had been taken from people who paid to park at Blair E. Batson Children's Hospital. They allegedly used the account numbers to create fake checks that were used to buy goods in Alabama and Mississippi.

The indictment didn't say whether the men worked at the hospital, but did say the account numbers were taken from people who paid a parking attendant.

Court records did not list attorneys for the men. They were indicted Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Jackson on charges including bank fraud and identity theft.
