ceny, took Lily Holmes personal
boad for sending in a false alarm

FIRED At
DOCTOR
Boy, Caught After Chase in
Which He Communicated z
Cabs, Fled Without Money

Frank Aquilino, II, Of 1925
Park Road N. W.. was arrested
and turned over to Maryland po-
lice last night after he led police
on wild chase from Forest Glen
following an alleged attempt to
hold up the manager of a pri-
vate sanitarium at Linden, Md.
The youth, according to police,
entered the sanitarium and, draw.
ing a revolver from his coat, de-
manded that DIR. N. A. Springer
hand him $1OO.
When the physician refused to
open the office safe, young Aqui-
limo is alleged to have fired three
shots, all of them going wild.
Flees From Hospital
Alarmed at the cries of pa
tients, who we're startled by the
shots, the boy lost his nerve and
ran from the building, command
eering a taxicab at the point Of
the gun. Frederick H. Garretson,
313 Fifteenth st. N. E., the driver
who took the boy to the institu.
ton. told police that Aquilino or
dered him to drive back to Wash
ington.
Constable Lee Jones who had
heard the commotion started
after the speeding cab. At Con-
necticut Avenue and Macomb
Street Northwest, the boy changed
cabs in an effort to shake off pur-
suit.
GarretsOn told police that when
he informed the boy that the bill
for the cab amounted to So,
AQuilinO made no objection, but
asked the driver to wait until he
held up a grocery store and he
would pay the bill.
Caught by Policeman
The boy was finally caught at
Fourteenth Street and Massa-
chusetts Avenue Northwest where
he was disarmed by Policemen
Rinker and Rector.
Aquilino is alleged to have ad-
mited the entire escapade and to
have explained that his father
had been a patient for two days
at the sanitarium. He said that
he paid 500 at the institution
and when he demanded a rebats
on the bill, which was for one
week, it was refused.
He was taken to the Silver
Spring jail where he is held on
a charge of assault with intent to
kill,
