A Bridgeport man was charged Tuesday for allegedly cashing a check in another person's name. The check may have belonged to a family member, according to police.

Dudeck allegedly cashed an $850 check from another person's account at the People's United Bank branch on Villa Avenue, police said.
Dudeck was held in lieu of a $5,000 bond and is scheduled to next appear in court on Oct. 31.
