A man used $450 in counterfeit money to pay for five items at the Hilton Head Walmart on Pembroke Drive last month, according to a Beaufort County Sheriff's Office report.

The incident happened around 1:30 p.m. on May 7, but was reported on May 29, according to the report.

The suspect, who was wearing a white shirt and dark pants, gave the cashier nine $50 counterfeit bills to pay the $437.56 bill, which included hedge trimmers, an electric blower and a Sprite and Minute Maid.

A deputy watched surveillance footage of the man checking out with the items, the report said.

The deputy said a photograph of the suspect will be obtained in order to help identify him.
