CANADENSIS — A fake story about suspected cop killer Eric Frien has a man from Canadensis in trouble with the law.
State police said Michael Abuiso lied last month when he gave a statement about Frein to Barrett Township Police.
Court papers say Abuiso claimed that Frein approached him in late July or early August about obtaining a fake ID. Abuiso told police that Frein offered to pay him $2,000-$3,000.
Troopers later interviewed the man, who admitted making up the story.
Abusio was charged with making false statements to police.
