Being charged with second-degree robbery (Class C felony), criminal mischief and theft of services (misdemeanors). Apparently he was none too pleased with a Buffalo cabbie and decided to punch him in the face and take some money.

Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane, the top overall pick in the 2007 NHL draft, was arrested early Sunday morning in Buffalo, N.Y., and charged with theft of services, criminal mischief and robbery in the second degree after an incident with a cab driver, according to multiple media reports.

The 20-year-old Kane and his cousin, James M. Kane, 21, were taken into police custody at about 5 a.m. ET after allegedly punching the driver and taking $15 in fare they had given him after he said he didn't have 20 cents in change, a police report says.

I'm speechless. This doesn't seem like Kane's character at all.

I know young PPL get drunk, I know because I did it.
I know you can get a kind of drunk called 'angry drunk' I know because I've done it.
But 20 bloody cents?!!?!!

That is just incredible. I know he will still suit up and play and he has got the talent to do so, but I hope the NHL can stick it to this kid a bit, this is ridiculous..20 cents..20 cents..20cents...

There seems to be more to the story then they're leading on. I guess the taxi driver has 2 DUI's on his record or something like that I read.
