Youths Slayer Still at Liberty after Double Killing
Warren officers searched late Friday night for a desperado who killed Elmo Kelley, 17, and wounded J D Beasley Jr, 25, Thursday night. He claimed to be an ex convict and was believed to cross the river at Moro Bay on a ferryboat Friday afternoon. Unable to pay fare, he pawned automobile tools hoping to redeem them Saturday. He drove a black 1940 Chevrolet sedan reportedly stolen at Smackover. The highwayman fired on the filling station operator and the youth after he left without paying for gasoline, then was run down by the two. He offered to settle the account with Spare fire, and when they went to the rear of the car, the bandit drew two pistols. Beasley fired first and the desperado shot, striking Beasley in the nose and Kelley in the head. Sheriff C W Hickman organized the search.
