Robbery Charge Dismissed After Court Testimony
A robbery charge against three brothers was dropped in Mayor A. A. Agate's court after two alleged victims gave differing versions. The youths aged 17, 18 and 20 were cleared of taking $11 from Frank E. Baths Jr. of LaGrange and robbing Walter Bowman at Loe Grange. Police initially identified the brothers, but trial testimony showed the incident stemmed from an argument over a trotey. The defendants pleaded not guilty and were found innocent as the case ended.
