Special Policeman Freed Of Liquor Charge By Judge

Ike Lockups 40 of 297 Atlantic Street accused three special policemen of assault with police billys at a State Street barn. Judge W J Buckley in city court dismissed charges against Officer James A Foley of 51 Pleasant Street, finding conflicting testimony and insufficient proof of guilt. The fight reportedly began over a debt at a State Street restaurant and continued into an alley, with Foley claiming self defense and Lockups denying the claims. Foley and witnesses testified they were not aggressors. Lockups faced assault and breach charges. Foley unlikely to face police board action unless Lockups files a formal complaint, while Lockups was not suspended.
