Six Month Extension for Roberts in Drunken Driving Case
David Frederick Roberts Jr of Baltimore received an additional six months confinement on a sentence from two weeks earlier after a Peoples Court conviction for drunken driving with a suspended license. He had resisted arrest previously and was tied to a bar fight with his brother James of Sharpsburg. Troopers Hardy and Guimino arrested him on West Patrick Street on August 6 after a long drive from Baltimore. Witness John Morris, 17, of Hancock, said Roberts drank 14 beers while driving. Magistrate Sheffield ordered concurrent one year terms to run with the six months. Also heard were fines for Mickey M. Keener, Route 1 Woodsboro, and a suspended fine for William Elmer Sittig of Camp Detroit for a stop light violation. Delmar Coward of New Kensington, Pa., forfeited collateral for overweight load.
