Burlington Beer Row Ends in Child Injury Incident
A Burlington street scene on Sunday afternoon turned dangerous when a wagonload party faced hardships. A man fell, knocked a child into the street, and the wheels passed over the child, wounding it seriously. The team halted, but a drunken man trampled the child again as he climbed atop the driver to save the larger baby, and the crowd fled into the countryside. The extent of the injuries is unknown.
