Mistaken Identity Lands Man in Jail for 22 Days

Yikes: A Massachusetts man whose identity was stolen two years ago was held in custody because a Bronx cab driver with the name, birthday and Social Security number jumped bail on a weapons possession charge. A judge finally decided to free him yesterday, saying, "The photo I have somewhat resembles you, but I'm satisfied it's not you"--the Post reports the suspect is "described as 6-foot-1 and 245 pounds" while the Holyoke, MA resident is "5-foot-8 and weighed less than 200.." Plus, his fingerprints didn't match the suspect's--and he had written proof his identity was stolen.
