During the early morning hours on August 16 Seneca Falls police apprehended 45-year-old Benyamina Fox during an incident at a local apartment complex.
While officers were arresting Fox for an unrelated matter, he resisted, hindering officers in their duties and subsequently spit on two of them.
Fox now faces charges, including one count of Obstructing Governmental Administration, a misdemeanor, in addition to two counts of second-degree harassment.
Following the incident, he was granted release with an appearance ticket. Fox is slated to appear in Seneca Falls Town Court at a future date to respond to the allegations.
