Desperate Cong at Work in Phillipsburg Burglary Attempt

Mrs Levine and their daughter suffered serious injuries while the father struggled to defend them. The attackers fled as neighbors arrived. police linked the crime to ex convicts recently seen in the area. A second break in, at Crater's blacksmith shop, yielded tools and weapons, suggesting a planned second hit. Authorities suspect the Phillipsburg group planned to blow open the store and the residence with explosives, then escape toward the railroad.
