High Point Officers Honored By Stranded Car Case
An automobile was ditched last week and a Georgia youth was arrested for larceny. His father paid the owner, the youth was released after three days, and the trio left town with thanks. Desks sergeant Ed Mungo, praised as a hearted officer, helped attract good press for High Point. A separate tale notes a young girl in the southern city receiving regular aid from a blue-coated officer after he learned of her illness. An elderly hotel owner, once burned out, recalled a debtor whose later payment prompted a moral reminiscence about debt and honor.
