The capture OF Clifford loyal and Ovid
Chabot last Saturday morning, two Arc
tic Centre boys. who have been wanted by
Deputy Sheriff Andrews since last Sep
tember. probably has broken up the gang
Of youthful burglars, who for the past
few months have been terrorizing the
Pawtuxet Valley merchants and battling
the police to certain extent. While war
rants have been out for their arrest for
sometime. they have been in hiding and
concealed their movements I'm a clever
manner.
number of the articles missed from
the department stores of $. ST Onge and
Peter Bedard was identified. Just what
will be brought against them seems a
quandary. Mr.. st. onge wants TO push
his case but the act OF entering the store
OF j. Flanagan & Co. at Riverpoint,
where the loyal boy was held up by Ber-
nard Mccoy seems to be the most serious
AFFAIR. and II is quite likely that this Is
the case which will be instituted against
them.
Both boys arc old offenders. as the loyal
boy was only out on probation.
