Indiana Man Charged With Home Repair Fraud

Dennis D. Sayers, of Arcadia, Indiana, was arrested by Indiana State Police for home improvement fraud, among other charges on Thursday, according to a story in The Indianapolis Star. With respect to the home improvement fraud charge, Sayers was accused of taking $3,500 in advance from a homeowner to do work on a New Palestine, Indiana home. The homeowner reportedly told police that Sayers set up scaffolding and tore off some siding and never returned. Subsequent bad weather then destroyed part of the home where the siding had been removed. For more, see Home contractor charged with fraud.
