A fugitive couple charged with welfare fraud was arrested Tuesday, Fort Lauderdale police said. The pair, who allegedly received public assistance while living on a luxury yacht in Florida, are being held without bail.
Police apprehended Colin and Andrew Chisholm in the Port Everglades area, NBC Miami reports.
The millionaire couple allegedly received $165,000 from their home state of Minnesota between January 2005 and March 2012, even though they had $3 million across multiple accounts during that time. The Chisholms are also accused of welfare fraud in Florida.
The couple made several payments on their $1.2 million yacht, though it was later repossessed.
