SPOKANE (AP) - Spokane police say a man arrested with the help of Coeur d'Alene police may be responsible for fraud cases across the country involving Craigslist.

Police say 26-year-old Joshua J. Mulvey would advertise items, persuade buyers to send money and then fail to turn over the goods.

Detectives tracked him to a Coeur d'Alene motel Tuesday night where he was arrested for investigation of theft.
