Damion Evans, 42, of Hyde Park, faces charges of embezzlement from a bank, forgery, and writing a false check, the Suffolk County District Attorney said on Thursday, Sept. 29. A judge released him without bail.

Prosecutors say Evans generated a $65,000 treasurer's check from Cambridge Trust bank but told his bosses that he did it by mistake and deleted the transaction from the system, authorities said.

A week later on June 16, Evans used that check to buy a BMW X6 from BMW of Norwood, authorities said. Bank managers called investigators after they noticed the transaction and gave them a copy of the check that Evans had signed when he bought the car, authorities said.

The bank fired him the next day.
