Free-lancer faces overdue fines

Posted
By: Editorial Staff George Szamuely, a free-lance writer for the alternative weekly New York Press, may have to put in double time to pay off $31,000 in fines he faces for allegedly refusing to return more than 500 books to New York University's library. Szamuely, 44, also faces grand larceny and possession of stolen property charges, New York's Daily News reported. New York Press editor John Strausbaugh told the Daily News he hopes Szamuely uses the experience as fodder for his next contribution.
