Coimbatore : Police are on the look out a person, who had given a colour xerox of a Rs.2000 note to a shop and took away Rs.12,000 after diverting the attention of a woman, near Sulur on the city outskirts.

According to police, a person in a car handed over the duplicate currency last night to the 65-year old woman, who was manning the shop, and sought cigarrette and water bottle.
