Youth Arraigned After Erie Holdup Claims Hazy Details
A South Gate California youth returned to Erie Saturday faced arraignment before Alderman James T Hogan on armed robbery charges. He allegedly staged the December 26 holdup of V O Gruber of the Murphy Co in downtown Erie. He says he cannot remember the robbery and recalls only walking with his father, having a gun, and fleeing with money. Police recovered the car, the gun, and about 450 dollars in cash. He previously had a juvenile record in Fairview and was later taken toward South Gate with his father after leaving town. The Defense notes the gun fell from his hand during the escape and that he bought a car for 1200 dollars at a used lot. The case involves the Erie police, South Gate investigators, and Alderman Hogan in a 2 p.m. arraignment.
