Judge Seeks Probe Of Police Brutality in Parade Incident
Municipal Judge Charles T. Smith pressed for an official probe into what he called the height of brutality by a police officer during Sunday's Miss Universe Parade. Police Chief William H. Dovey rejected the request, while Jimmy Welch, the 53 year old man allegedly battered, plans a damage suit. Welch, arrested for intoxication and disorderly conduct, said he recalls little but believes witnesses, including Judge Smith, will support his claim. Welch alleged Officer James W. Anderberg struck him as a crowd was subdued, with Smith observing from a nearby rooftop.
