WOMAN
Sister Of Victim Chases
Fireman Who Boards
Trolley to Escape.

There was no haven Of refuge for a
35-year-old city fireman Tuesday night
from the relentless pursuit of Jesusa
Hernandez and as a result the fire
fighter is in the city Jail booked on a
charge of aggravated assault.
The pursuer's sister, Maria Soria, is
named as the complaining witness.
Both women were standing inside a
tailor shop at 617 Dolorosa Street,
with some acquaintance when the
fireman passed.
Stopping in front of the place, the
man struck at the plate glass window,
his fist going through to strike Maria
full in the face, witnesses said. The
force of the blow knocked her to the
floor. Spectators declared the fireman
was drunk. He fled when the vic
TINS sister came after him.
After a blocks pursuit the fireman
boarded a Guadalupe street car and
waved benignly from rear window.
Enlisting the aid of male escort,
Jesusa procured an automobile and
continued the chase after the street
car. Feeling secure after placing more
than a mile distance between himself
and the scene of the attack. the man
left the street car at Guadalupe Street
and the Alazan creek.
Before he could reach the curb the
surprised man was pounced upon by
Jesusa and her escort. The woman
ran to a telephone while her COM
panion held the man.
Motorcycle Officer William Chris
