Unusual murder case in city linked to watchman at mill
Antonio Necsner, a Wor din cobbler, is held on suspicion in the shooting death of night watchman Marian Szovak at the Tait and Sons paper mill on BalIroaay avenue. Szovak, 50, born in Horovath Hungary, was found shot in the back while on rounds. Police allege threats by Necsner over a 35 debt, with little else known about the victim or motive beyond a possible loan dispute. Coroner Phelan ordered autopsy after Szovak’s body was found arranged as if laid out by an undertaker, a detail that aided the investigation’s early progress.
