Kentuckian Starts Reign Of
Terror In "Bull Pen"-Then
It Happens

Daniel Fensten, O Kentuckian, SIX
feet six inches tall. tried TO start q
reign OF terror In Detroit Sunday
night. but Daniel has different view
OF life now.
Seven large. 3s-caliber bullets that
whistled dangerously near TO his
head. his coat tails. and his feet, fall
ed TO take all Of the tight out OF Dan
lei, though they caused him to submit
10 arrest. but the tall pine from old
Kaintuck started riot In the bull
pen" In the central station after his
Iarrest-and then II happened.
Doorman Conway. who doesn't quite
touch the six-foot mark, strobe In
amongst the terrified occupants of
the big cell, where Fensten was chas.
ing the other prisoners, and occasion
ally landing q .resounding wallop on
one of them.
Daniel went right after Conway.
And then he stopped. He stopped sew
eral times. For several minutes, Con-
way hit Daniel. and Daniel hit the
fioor. Then the Kentuckian decided
that he had played bad man" long
enough, and he has behaved since.
His arrest followed his attack on
Mabel Webster, Of No. 365 Grand Riv-
crave, whom he slashed with ra-
cor. wounding her badly, but not IA
tally. Detectives Lannan. Isham and
Trembley responded to an alarm. and
they chased Fensten as he was has
tening through Grand River-ave. He
took refuge on back porch at Pine
ST. and Grand River-ave.. and the ON
GERS, warned that he carried q large
revolver, "deployed" and ordered him
to come out from behind bis ash
can. No reply came, and they start
ed shooting into and around the ash
can. Seven shots were hred. Then
Fensten said he would surrender.
, In the station he made a bluff at
choking himself with his bare hands.
but the detectives let him choke. and
he desisted. Later he started the dis
turbance which brought Doorman
Conway and disaster.
He Is held on a charge of felonious
assault.
