MISSOULA- Missoula Police are looking for a man who bought two cars with checks that were issued from a closed bank account. Police say one of the incident happened on Wednesday and the other one happened on Thursday.

A man bought two cars from private owners with a check. When the victims tried to cash the checks, they found out the account they were issued from was closed.
