Acid Thrower Seen As Giving Slip To Cop
In New York the assailant who splashed sulfuric acid in labor reporter Victor Riesel's eyes may have slipped away from a patrolling officer. The patrolman briefly detained a young man near the scene and then released him to pursue two holdup suspects.

Rewards for the attacker climbed above 33 thousand dollars, including a 1,000 dollar pledge from Local 138 of the International Union of Operating Engineers, amid broader union tensions and extortion convictions involving union leaders.
