Two Youths Charged with Theft Of Cars
William Anderson 16 of North Pittsburgh was jailed for allegedly attempting to steal Warren Horrell’s car at a Blairsville gas station on Sunday night. Anderson lacked a license and owner’s card when stopped by Patrolman C F Rugh at Penn View Mountain. Horrell learned his car was stolen only after Rugh brought Anderson to Indiana substation to call for help. Paul V. Kline of Indiana RD 3 and Henry Boyer 21 of Shelocta were also charged. Kline’s car was left on the Shelocta Plumville road after fuel ran out. Boyer had just been released from the county workhouse where he served nine to 18 months for a prior theft, per Judge B E Crepe in October 1936.
