Curious street encounter ends in a punch for a boastful youth
A twenty three year old man boasted he would fire the police and questioned a stranger near Jeffora Avenue. After insults and a rogue remark, he was struck by a railway baggage master and sent sprawling to the pavement. The bald headed observer noted the youth’s lack of moral courage as he recovered and prepared to sit on a salt barrel.
