FORT WORTH – An aspiring record-label owner is singing the blues after being arrested last week when bank employees said he tried to pass a $360 billion check.  
When they saw all those zeroes (10 to be exact), employees at Chase Bank, 8601 S. Hulen St., called the account holder. She said that Charles Ray Fuller, 21, of Crowley, is her daughter’s boyfriend and that he did not have permission to take the check or try to cash it.  
Fuller now faces charges of fraud, unlawfully carrying a weapon and possession of marijuana. Officers reported finding less than two ounces of marijuana and a .25-caliber handgun and magazine in his pockets.  
While in a patrol car, police said, Fuller blurted out that he is starting his own record label and his girlfriend’s mother gave him the money to help him out.  
Apparently breaking into the music business is not cheap. But bail was less expensive: Fuller was released from Mansfield Jail on Thursday after posting $3,750.

at least do a check that is likely to not be noticed, less than $5k.

“Officers reported finding less than two ounces of marijuana”

gimme a break… this sentence eliminates any credibility the source has as a legimate journalist.

was he trying to deposit this, or did he actually believe that they were going to hand him $360 billion in cash?
