Highway police and County Attorney Ralph O. Dale announced that sufficient evidence did not exist to substantiate the charge against Lloyd Coombs of 526 High Street for leaving the scene of an accident. Defense attorney John P. Carey Jr. provided evidence placing Coombs elsewhere at the time, and witnesses testified the car differed from Coombs’s vehicle. Coombs’s reputable character reportedly aided the decision.
