Two people are charged with insurance fraud after authorities say they filed a false claim from a wreck earlier this spring.
David Rowe, 36, of Lincolnton and his former wife, Terri Lynn Rowe, 33, of Maiden were arrested earlier this week, according to the state Department of Insurance. They were booked into the Lincoln County jail but have since bonded out.
State authorities say Terri Rowe let someone drive her car on March 7 and the person got into a wreck. But Rowe allegedly told her insurance company that she was behind the wheel at the time, according to a news release.
Authorities also allege that David Rowe drove his work van into his ex-wife?s car to try to increase her damage claim. Terri Rowe received a settlement from Progressive Insurance Company of $2,018.83 that officials say she wasn?t entitled to.
The Department of Insurance said it has 20 sworn law enforcement officers who investigate possible insurance and bail bonding fraud. More than 14,000 claims have been received since 2009, and officials have collected more than $48.5 million in restitution and recoveries for victims, according to the news release.
