Reserveman John R. Fitzgerald, attached to the Hanover street station, was exonerated of assault charges after a two day hearing before Captains Gaskin Forest F Hall and Brickley. The case, which involved an ice cream factory on Commercial street, led to a lengthy investigation and general order by Police Commissioner Stephen O'Meara. The board found no proof of assault, noting conflicting testimony from the complainant, his partner, and witnesses, and detailing the alleged struggle and actions on the night in question.
The hearing centers on whether events occurred after 12 or just after 11, with witnesses split on the time. The complainant’s past offenses include arson sentence, street rubble disposal, assault in Revere, and a 1909 injunction for keeping horses, plus a recent $25 fine for assaulting a sheriff's officer.
