A man labeled by Visitors Bureau officials as their "number one enemy downtown" has been charged with aggressive panhandling.
Police said Mendon John Price, 49, was hustling patrons attending a Symphony performance at the Tivoli Theatre when he was arrested last Thursday.
Police said Price is "banned from many parts of downtown for being a nuisance panhandler."
Officers said he has been issued numerous citations to City Court, but he ignores those "and continues his aggressive panhandling."
Police said he keeps a harmonica with him "as a prop. He pulls the harmonica out when we show up in guise of entertaining for proceeds."
Price has an extensive record dating back to 1996.
He is a resident of the Boynton Overlook Apartments at 1201 Boynton Dr., according to police.
