Man Arrested for Not Having Cab Fare

An Olean man is facing charges for not having cab fare.

24-year-old James Hovey took a taxi from Olean to Salamanca at 11:30 last Tuesday night and didn’t have the money to pay for it. He’s charged with theft of services and is scheduled to appear in Salamanca Town Court.

This is not Hovey’s first brush with the law. A year ago he pleaded guilty to assaulting two people in Olean. In 2009 he attempted to break into the Nafco Quick Stop in Great Valley.
