Man Fined and Suspended for Assault on Officer
A downtown bar incident led to Joseph E. Witt being fined 100 dollars plus costs and given a 60 day suspended jail term on three conditions. Officer Herbert Fawley, off duty, testified Witt struck him after asking if he was a cop. Fawley suffered minor cuts. Other locals faced fines for drunkenness and related charges as the city cleared its criminal docket.
