An employee at Circuit City, 7001 Cermak, alerted police that a man was trying to apply for credit with false identification. Jesus Ledesma, 29, of Cicero, had tried to apply for $5000 in credit at Circuit City. He told police the Illinois Driver's License and state ID he used were fakes, purchased by him a couple of months ago in the 26th and California neighborhood of Chicago. He said he also bought a fake Green Card and Social Security card to get a job, buy a car and apply for credit.
