Two West Pittston Cops Dismissed for Overzealous Bicyclist Arrests
Special to the Scranton Tribune Pittston June 10 Two West Pittston officers Hallstead and Davenport were dismissed by the town council for overzealousness in arresting bicyclists. The borough has ten policemen and revenue largely comes from wheelman arrests for sidewalk riding and other ordinances. One officer reportedly made ten such arrests last month including Harry Laycock son of Colonel Laycock. The council dismissed the pair after witnesses testified Laycock was riding in the street at moderate speed and not violating the sidewalk rule.
