Authorities say a Westmoreland County contractor is behind bars, accused of defrauding customers, in multiple area counties, of over $250,000 in home improvement services.
According to the Westmoreland County Sheriff's Department, 41-year-old Jason Pirl, of Scottdale, was taken into custody Tuesday morning following a weeks-long investigation.
Investigators say Pirl is accused of defrauding customers in Westmoreland, Fayette and Somerset counties.
Authorities say Pirl was believed to be living out of his vehicle in order to try and evade capture.
Police say Pirl is being held in the Westmoreland County Jail.
