POLICE INTELLIGENCES—This Day
_---0-

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A MOTHER SERIOUSLY INJURED BY HER SON.—WIII.
Fitzgerald, a young man described as a tailor, of 4, Tudor-
place, Tottenham-court-road, was charged before
.Mr.
Tyrwhitt with violently assaulting his mother, Hannah
Fitzgerald, and also his father and brother.
The prisoner had a very haggard appearance, and seemed
to be labouring under the effects of a long course of dissi-
pation.
The mother was unable to attend, and a certificate was
handed to Mr. Tyrwhitt, signed by Dr. Saul, of No. 2,
Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square, stating that Hannah
Fitzgerald was unable to leave her bed in consequence of
having received a severe scalp and other wounds.
It appears that the prisoner this morning seized up a
poker, :with which he dealt his mother a violent blow on
the head, inflicting a very serious wound. He then took
up a pan and again struck his mother on the head with it.
He then tried to throttle his father,:and afterwards attacked
him, severely injuring his mouth. The prisoner, who had
behaved throughout as if mad, then made his escape on to
the roofs of some houses, and, taking up some bricks, de-
fied the police to interfere with him, and it was nearly an
hour before Sergeant Rogers, 87 E, and other constables
could capture him.

Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week, and
said that by that time they would be able to ascertain the
result of the injuries the mother had received.
ASSAULTS ON THE POLlCE.—Maurice Jones, 'a medical
student, residing at No. 14, Dean-Street, was charged
before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with assaulting Police-constable
Wood, 151 C, and Rough, 310 A.
Wood said that on Saturday night at a quarter to 12,
the defendant, who was intoxicated, was trying to force
his way into a public-house in Oxendon-streot.. He re-
quested the defendant to go away, but he refused, saying
that if lie (the constable) interfered with him .he
,would
punch his head, and immediately after did so. Three or
four other constables coming up, :the defendant, who was
very violent, was got to the station.
Henry Rough, 310. A, proved being kicked by the de-
fendant, who was very violent.
Defendant said he had taken a little too much to drink.
Mr. Tyrwhitt fined him 10s., or 14 days, for each assault.
Robert Hodgson, a watchman, was charged with assault-
ing Langham, 108 C.
The constable saw the defendant asleep in a doorway,
and on raising him he struck him, and put his hand in his
pocket as if to take something from it. As the defendant
was drunk the constable took him to the station. In his
pocket a staff and a rattle were found.
Defendant—l am a watchman. _ . _

Mr. Tyrwhitt—And get drunk and go to sleep in a door-
way.
The defendant was fined 10s., or 14 days in default.

John Whelan, a labouring =an, was charged with being
drunk and disorderly, and assaulting 76 C, and fined 10s.
or 14 days.
John Stephen Griffiths, a rough fellow, was charged
with assaulting police-constable Hard 186 A.
Some gentlemen complained to the constable while in
Hyde Park on Saturday evening, that the prisoner was in-
terfering with every one passing, and .on the constable
going up to him, he (prisoner) immediately struck him
several severe blows, one of them blackening his eye.
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the constable said the pri-
soner was drunk.
Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for seven days.
