MAN ARRESTED ON
SERIOUS CHARGE
Carmine Trrgnia is Arrested
After Hiding in Bushes for
Over Two Days.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.


Woodbridge, Sept. 27-With Sc
rious bullet wound in his neck, caus-
ed when an enraged mother frus-
trated his attempt to shot her, after

was captured this morning by OFF,
GER Dunphy, of the Woodbridge po-
lice. Wounded and weak from expo
sure, the man is now in critical
condition at the township hall,
where he is held under a serious
charge.
Trrgnia, who is thirty-seven years
old, was a boarder with family
named Vernillo, living in a little
frame house in back of the coal docks
at Port Reading. Early Saturday
morning he carnally abused seven
year old Margaretta and his act was
discovered by the mother, who i'm
mediately raised an alarm.
The man drew back into a corner
of the room and savagely grasped his
revolver, leveling 1t at the woman.
Panther-like, she sprang at the man
and in the tussle the weapon dis
charged its contents into Trrgnia' S
neck. Although bleeding profusely,
he withdrew from the house and
managed to elude the neighbors as
he made his escape toward the rush
es upon the shore of the Staten Is
land sound.
Saturday and all day yesterday
the police were on his trail, but. the
wounded man could not be found.
Suffering excruciating pain from the
gun wound, and weak from the loss
of blood and failure to procure food
the injured man crawled back toward
the scene of the shooting this morn
ing, and he was found in the bushes
only a short distance from the Ver-
Milo home when taken in custody
by Officer Dunphy. The capture was
made about 9 O'Clock, and Trrgnia
was taken to the lookup, later receiv-
ing medical attention.
