(CNN) Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney fired the city's treasurer on Friday after he was arrested and federally indicted for embezzling money from clients at his previous job as a financial adviser. Prosecutors say Dunbar and his current wife each married the two other unidentified people within days of each other in December 2006 where a former Temple University professor was the officiant. If convicted, Dunbar faces a maximum possible sentence of 45 years in federal prison and a fine of $1.5 million. While he was an employee at Wells Fargo, prosecutors say, Dunbar signed off on bank withdrawal slips from the customer's account and deposited the funds into his personal account. McSwain's office says Dunbar allegedly stole $15,000 from two different customers in December 2015 and January 2016 -- weeks before he was appointed to the position as the City's Deputy Treasurer.
