SWEETWATER, TX -- The Sweetwater Sheriff's Office has arrested three men in connection to counterfeit cash that was found in their vehicle in Taylor County.
The three suspects, Christopher Guajardo, 32, Benny Caballero, 44 and Marcus Caballero,43, were taken into custody following an investigation by Taylor County Sheriff's Office (TCSO) who contacted them while they were sitting in a car parked at a bank in Trent Wednesday morning.
