ROCKVILLE, Md. — The Virginia couple at the center of last week’s White House security breach is accused of bouncing a nearly $24,000 check for liquor purchased in Maryland.

The Montgomery County government, which conducts all the wholesale liquor sales on its territory, filed a lawsuit Thursday against Michaele and Tareq Salahi. The Salahis purchased the wine and beer for America’s Polo Cup World Championship, a charity polo event they held in May.

Meanwhile, at a Virginia courthouse Friday, Tareq Salahi was forced to give up a Patek Phillipe watch he was wearing to pay the couple’s $2,000 debt to a landscaper. Salahi’s attorney said the watch was worth far more than the debt.
