Passenger Pays For NYC Cab Fare With IPod
NEW YORK (AP) ―
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is investigating an incident where a California woman says she was forced to use her iPod as payment for a cab ride.
Natalie Lenhart, 20, of Sacramento, took a cab to the airport in early December, but her credit card was declined. The driver called 911, and Port Authority police responded. Lenhart was told she had to give the driver some compensation, so she turned over the iPod.
A spokeswoman for the Port Authority said the incident was being investigated by the internal affairs office. The story was first reported by the New York Post.
