Miami, November 7 (RHC)-- In Fort Lauderdale, Florida, a 90-year-old man is facing potential jail time for serving food to the homeless.

Arnold Abbott, known as Chef Arnold, has been cited twice in the past week after a city ordinance went into effect that bans feeding the poor.

Abbott described one of his encounters with police to a local news station. Abott said: "One of the police officers came over and said, 'Drop that plate, right now!' as though I was carrying a weapon. These are the poorest of the poor. They have nothing. They don’t have a roof over their head. And who could turn them away?"
