A man believed to be a fugi.
tive from police today stole an
automobile from L. P. Stewart
Motor Company, in the 1900
block of Fourteenth st. N. W.,
after taking a demonstration ride
pretending he wanted to purchase
the car.
Perley B. Hunt, the salesman
who demonstrated the car, said
the man asked for cash price
on it after the ride and he got
out of the machine to consult
with the sales manager. The
customer" drove off.
The theft had bandage
around one leg for an injury
he said he received in an acci-
dent.
The theory that he may have
been shot and the fact that
he showed characteristics of
narcotic addict led police to
check his description with those
of criminals known to be at large.
He was about 35 years old, less
than medium height, and
swarthy. He wore dark suit
and overcoat and had a patch
under one eye.
