Two people from Spokane were arrested last week after the police alleged that they were involved in a mail and check fraud scheme affecting at least 50 alleged victims.

On January 31 in Post Falls, Idaho, a traveler saw a truck stopped in the middle of a traffic lane. The individual believed the driver and passenger were sleeping, and they decided to approach the vehicle. They woke the man and woman and suggested that they park on the side of the road while they slept, but the driver reportedly drove away instead. The person notified the authorities about the situation, and an officer from the Post Falls Police Department quickly found the truck nearby.

After pulling over the truck, a K9 at the scene signaled that they detected narcotics in the vehicle. According to reports, the police found meth paraphernalia, in addition to many pieces of mail addressed to different residences. They also allegedly came across checks they believed were forged by the driver and passenger.

Death Metal band Decapitated is currently visiting the United States from Poland on their “Double Homicide” tour. A woman who attended their show at The Pin, a venue in downtown Spokane, WA, has accused the four members of the band of kidnapping and gang-raping her in the bathroom of their bus following the performance.

The day after the show the woman filed a report alleging that she entered the bus for drinks with Michal Mikolaj Lysejko, 27; Waclaw Jan Kieltyka, 35; Rafal Tomasz Piotrowski, 31; and Hubert Edward Wiecek, 30, where they each took a turn sexually assaulting her. Information regarding the alleged kidnapping has not been disclosed at this time.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department investigated the case at the request of the Spokane police. The band continued their tour for a month after the woman’s claims, when they were apprehended after their performance at The Observatory in Santa Ana, CA.
