When you’re on the lookout for a 90-year-old World War II veteran wearing a chef’s uniform and hat, Arnold Abbott is hard to miss. Making matters worse for the accused was all the available evidence. Pasta with cubed ham. Lots of it. And, quite brazenly, a white onion celery sauce, too. Abbott now faces two counts of breaking a week-old Fort Lauderdale ordinance, each charge carrying a possible 60-day jail term and $500 fine. His suspected crime? Feeding the homeless.”
