Autoist Foils STP-Sin Bandit on Flores Street
A quick thinking motorist frustrated an attempted holdup Thursday night at 514 1/2 South Flores. The bandit jumped onto the running board when the driver stopped for a refuel but was thrown to the street as the car sped away. No gun was fired and no one was hurt. Police reported multiple minor thefts around the city, including a pocketbook and $15 taken from John Carroll, and a wallet snatching near East Crockett Street. A man described as a wellknown police character was named by the victim as a suspect. A youth, directed by an older man, pressured Carroll with a knife during the robbery at Leong and San Fernando streets.
