A Yorktown resident reported a stolen check on July 12 that was allegedly altered to change the amount and redirect the funds into another account, according to Yorktown police.

Detectives identified a 24-year-old Brooklyn man as a suspect in the case, police said on Thursday.

Jahmir Primer was charged with fourth-degree grand larceny and second-degree identity theft, both felonies. He voluntarily surrendered to police on Oct. 13 and was released on his own recognizance after receiving a desk appearance ticket.

He was due to appear that same evening.
