[March 04, 2010]  LANCASTER, Pa. (AP) -- A central Pennsylvania man faces charges for three separate incidents involving police in a span of three hours.

Manheim Township police said 49-year-old Mark E. Blaylock was charged with theft of services after allegedly refusing to pay a $69 cab fare around 11 a.m. About an hour later he was charged with public drunkenness after police said he was found lying on a road near his house.

Another hour after that, authorities said Blaylock called 911 to request police assistance. Investigators said he was cited for reporting a medical emergency without good cause because he told officers he needed them to fill a prescription.

Blaylock is facing a misdemeanor charge and a pair of summary offenses.

A phone number for Blaylock could not immediately be located Wednesday.
