Scooter Store owes $1.3 million to City of New Braunfels

NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas -

One day after being raided by federal and state investigators, workers returned to The Scooter Store in New Braunfels Thursday.

As the federal government investigates possible Medicare fraud, the city of New Braunfels is trying to get the company to repay them more than $1 million in incentives tied to jobs.

Back in 2009, the Scooter Store went to city leaders seeking incentives. The company was ready to expand its headquarters and add hundreds of new jobs. The city agreed to give the company $3.4 million but they didn't get what they paid for.

"Last Friday, we did issue a demand letter for $1.3 million to be repaid by the Scooter Store," said Bob Gray, vice president of the New Braunfels Industrial Development Corporation.
