A short article from ABC3340<\/a> tells us about the arrest of Joseph Bentley Knight who was picked up in Shelby County, Alabama. It looks like he was arrested for pretending to be a recipient of the Navy Cross and he was using that story to defraud a resident until the local sheriff intervened.<\/p>\n

The Shelby Co. Sheriff’s Office says Knight also had other medals in his possession and used them to get money from an individual.<\/p>\n

Knight is currently free on a $1,000 bond.<\/p>\n

Deputies say no charges have been pressed by the person tricked into giving him money, yet.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
