Former OCB forward Benjamin Polk was arrested early Saturday morning for aggravated battery causing bodily harm. According to deputies, Polk punched a cab driver repeatedly in the face, knocking out a tooth.
Polk, 25, and another passenger took the cab from Pine Street in downtown Orlando to Lake Mary. Polk was upset that the fare was $57, and the cab driver informed the pair he had already run his credit card.
Deputies were called to the 1100 block of Island Shore Lane just after 3 a.m. Saturday. They found the cab driver standing next to his taxi with blood on his face and shirt, authorities said.
