OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
START EXCITEMENT
Hold Youth as Holdup Suspect,
Later Releasing Him ,

|
Southington, Aug. IL - A crowd
of several hundreds of persons gath
cred in front OF the town hall here
last night but not In the interest of
the two condemned radicals in Bos-
on. The. crowd collected because Of
! the arrest and holding incommuni-
cado of Peter Pernal of Rourke ave-
nue. on Tuesday evening on suspi-
cion Of being a holdup man who has
been terrorizing autoists on the roads
between Southington and Lake Com
pounce.
Policeman Edward Geary Of the
newly established Southington Police
department and Police Committee
man Christopher lilly. made the ar
rest Tuesday evening at IL o'clock
at Pernars home. They also took
in on suspicion, Edward Skinner and
Charles Campbell, two local youths
but released them after a short
questioning.
Pernal was held by the police
without formal charges being placed
against him on complaint of a man
who claimed to have been held up.
He gave the number of markers on
the alleged car Of the holdup man
and described it as being blue
body.
The police absolutely refused to
give out any information with re-
gard to the reasons for suspecting
Pernal of being implicated in the
holdups. They refused admittance Of
newspaper men to the police head
quarters in the town hall and then
proceeded to put Pernal in a cell
and refused to let him see anyone.
Relatives who attempted to talk with
him were turned away and a police
man was stationed in the cell block
in the rear of the town hall as
guard to keep all persons away.
Last night at $3.50 o'clock. Pernal
was released without any word of
explanation other than the simple
statement: 1--WE had nothing on
him." This action was taken fol-
lowing an investigation by Deputy
Sheriff Gerald Risley detailed on the
tstSc Wy NOuIlly beleStINc Cu " dl u
Hickey from the states attorneys
office.
Excitement over the case was run
ming high and hundreds of indignant
people gathered in front of the town
hall last night as the hours wore on.
Sheriff Risley questioned Pernal and
then advised that he be released. AS
far as is known. no formal charges
were placed against him and he was
not brought to trial.
1t is reported that Pernal was
seized because the last three num-
bers on the markers on his car were
the same as those given the police
by the man who claims he was held
up. The first two were entirely diff
ferent. Perna's car is green and not
blue as the supposed victim describ-
ed the bandits vehicle.
Pernal is reported contemplating
action against the police department
for false arrest and unlawful impris-
onment He claims, 1t Is said, that
there was no cause for keeping him
in the lookup since late Tuesday
night until last night without bring
ing charges against him.
The case has caused almost as
much excitement in the town as the
capture of the alleged bank bandits
did a short time ago.
