Auto thief sent to work house for two years
Pleading guilty to stealing two automobiles, Marl Partner of town was sentenced Monday to pay court costs, a $100 fine, and 12 months in the Allegheny County Workhouse on each count. In May the defendant took John Johnston’s car at Blairsville, drove to Indiana and back, then took F B Leegle’s Buick before being arrested. He claimed no intent to steal, saying the cars were taken for rides at others’ expense, and the judge urged a strong example against a growing theft trend.
