'X' man's tag leads to more than $19,000 in Birmingham parking tickets

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- For Huntsville resident Scottie Roberson, the letter X -- seven of them to be exact -- led to more than $19,000 in Birmingham parking tickets.

Roberson, who said he has been to Birmingham only once in the last five years and left without a ticket, said he was told by city officials the tickets were issued by mistake because of his vanity plate -- XXXXXXX.
