Fourteen Drag Racers Sentenced in New Orleans
In New Orleans a city judge bypassed fines and jailed fourteen teen drivers for drag racing and dangerous driving. Judge MacHauer commuted to three days with release on Sunday, citing noncriminal intent but warning drag racing has gotten out of hand. The youths, aged 17 to 19, will receive traffic safety lectures and films during detention at the House of Detention, under police guard for work details in city parks. Names include Beadle of Slidell and others from New Orleans.
