Judge Finds Probable Cause In Bryant Case
Bryant, 24, of Williamstown, charged with breaking and entering a plant and larceny, was bound over to the Grand Jury after a judge found probable cause. A security guard testified Bryant was at the Phelps-Dodge aluminum plant and claimed he sought his paycheck. One hundred dollars allegedly stolen from the gate house was mentioned but not tied to Bryant in court. Bryant chose to defend himself as his preliminary hearing wrapped up. The report also notes unrelated film and conference items on the docket.
