Used Baby as Missile Arrest Raises Bail
Warren P Wells was arraigned before Alderman John P Kelly on charges from William Bolask of Keyser Valley. Bolask alleges Wells seized his infant and used it as a weapon, hurling the child at Mrs Bolask, causing serious injuries to the child and mother. Wells posted 600 bail and denies the incident. Bolask, a Wells tenant, says Wells entered last Monday seeking a man, found him absent, then snatched the child and hurled it at Bolask's wife. Three officers sought warrants but Wells evaded arrest until Saturday.
