Chicago Blackhawk right winger and South Buffalo native Patrick Kane and a relative face robbery and other charges after allegedly assaulting a cab driver and failing to pay their fare after getting a ride from Chippewa Street early this morning.

 

Kane, 20, and James M. Kane, 21, were arrested about 5 a.m. on Eastwood Place, according to Buffalo police reports.

 

The pair allegedly punched the cab driver and grabbed money they had handed him after he told them he didn't have twenty cents in coins to give them their change, the report said. Their fare was $13.80 and they handed the driver $15, according to a report. The cab driver told police he was punched in the face and head, grabbed by the throat and had his glasses broken during the incident. A torn $5 bill was found in James Kane's pocket while in the Erie County Holding Center, the report said.

 

Buffalo Police Department spokesman Michael J. DeGeorge confirmed Patrick Kane and a relative were arrested after an incident involving a cab driver. Both men were charged with second-degree robbery, a Class C felony, as well as fourth-degree criminal mischief and theft of services, both Class A misdemeanors.

I'm guessing he had to be drunk to fight over pocket change. Or the relative was the physical one.

His punishment should be having to stay in the area, and play for the Sabres. That'll teach him.

 

You're obviously not acquainted with the term "cruel and unusual punishment." I mean, what are we, barbarians?

Or a cheap a-hole. Guys like this don't deserve pro athlete paychecks.

That sort of reminds me of a Drew Rosenhaus. My brother was a bartender for a restaurant out on Lincoln Road in South Beach, and one of the waiters was waiting on D.R, and he ended up walking out without paying his bill. He had eaten there other times as well, and would never leave an additional tip on top of the bill.

 

On an another occasion he was driving off of a crossroad of Lincoln Road, and he was in his Ferari, got out of the car, held up traffic and started talking to this girl. The dude is an egomaniac

Please tell me the kitchen staff spit (and worse) in his food.

Lemme get this straight...a multimillionaire assaulted somebody for not being able to produce 20 CENTS???? I assume he was drunk out of his gourd...at least he wasn't driving.

 

Not that it changes anything, but I guarantee that the cabbie made that part up. They paid him and then he didn't offer them any change at all (yeah, that whole extra dollar, big deal), then it got ugly. Those cabbies just assume they're keepign the money the second you hand it to them. He created that little detail about the 20 cents so they'd look even worse than they already do.
