A seven-count indictment was returned by a federal grand jury Thursday charging a man and a woman with manufacturing counterfeit money and using it to make purchases at a Clarence Walmart this summer, U. S. Attorney Kathleen M. Mehltretter said.

Ronald E. Evans, 52, and Tashine Knightner, 39, both of Buffalo, could face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Evans was also indicted on a charge of unlawful possession of a firearm and faces a mandatory mini-mum prison term of 15 years if convicted.

The two are accused of making counterfeit money and using it at the Walmart between July and September, according to Assistant U. S. Attorney Aaron J. Mango.
