LEE, N.Y. — The New York State Police announced that they have arrested the owner of Taylor Construction in Camden for taking and keeping money from a homeowner for roof-replacement work he didn’t do.
State Police in Lee on Friday arrested Roberto L. Taylor, age 48 of Rome, for 3rd degree grand larceny, a felony.
Taylor in June entered into a contract with a homeowner in the town of Lee to replace a roof on the individual’s residence. Taylor received a down payment of $6,000 for the job, State Police say. For nearly three and a half months, no work was completed, no materials arrived at the home, and Taylor is accused of making no effort to refund the money.
