DARING STREET ROBBERY.—Richard Keating, a
lad about 16 years of age, was brought before Mr.
Paget with stealing a bag containing £l4 from an
elderly gentleman, name unknown.
Police-sergeant Dunaway, a detective officer,
stated that ho took the prisoner ito custody yester-
day, and, from information he received, he believed
that the prisoner was concerned with another
lad in assaulting and robbing Mr. Thomas
Withers, of King's Lynn, Norfolk. The robbery
was a very daring one. Mr. Withers came up from
King's Lynn Ito pay an account to a publican
in Rosemary-lane, and he was accosted in Dock-
street by two boys. One of them made a snatch
at his hat and said I'll buy that hat of you. The
witness raised his hands to protect his hat, and the
other boy took his purse and keys out of his left
hand trousers pocket, dropped the keys on the
pavement, and escaped with the money. The boys
were pursued but they soon outstepped their pur-
suers. Mr. Withers had only 10d. remaining in
his pockets after his gold was taken, and he was
indebted to the publican, his creditor, for the means
of returning to Kings-Lynn.
James Macarthy, aged 14 years of age, said the
prisoner was one of the boys who committed the
robbery. He saw the prisoner running, and the old
gentleman pursuing him.
Dunaway—Will you grant me a summons for
the attendance of the gentleman that was robbed ?
Mr. Paget—Certainly I will. The prisoner is re-
manded for a week.
