On Saturday Jeremy Leinen called the Maricopa Police saying someone stole $17 million from his bank account.

“A records check indicated Leinen was wanted for an outstanding arrest warrant issued by the Maricopa Municipal Court for an original charge of misdemeanor trespassing,” a police probable cause statement reads.

Police met with Leinen outside his residence on West Rio Lobo Drive at 7:40 p.m. about the alleged theft and quickly arrested him on the outstanding warrant.

“An investigation revealed Leinen’s claims of the 17-million-dollar theft was unfounded,” the probable cause statement reads.
