Un-Fare

Police have arrested an 18-year-old man accused of stealing at least three county buses and driving them on their routes. You mean, he did somebody's job for free?

James L. Harris is charged with three counts each of third-degree grand theft and burglary of an occupied conveyance.

According to police, Harris would take the buses from several Miami-Dade Transit bus depots in the county and drive the buses on their routes, picking up and dropping off passengers along the way. He would then return the buses at the end of the day. Harris didn't raise any suspicion because he was dressed like a Miami-Dade Transit employee. Police also said he didn't steal any bus fare.
