Motorman's Story Doubted In Verdict
Coroner's jury found Gunard Peterson died from injuries after an eastbound Columbia streetcar struck his cutter on Garddens Street about three weeks ago. The panel judged the car should have stopped within 20 feet, despite the motorman and conductor denying a passing eastbound car at the scene. Father of the deceased testified he saw another car, while witnesses described the car's speed and braking as the jury reviewed approximately 90 feet of travel after the impact.
