A cab driver was beaten uncon-
Scious and robbed early today and
police have arrested suspect.
The driver, Charles r. Williams,
colored. 25, of l21 L street Sc,
recovered consciousness long enough
to give police sketchy description
of the man who he said beat him
about the head with a whisky bottle
and a brick. Doctors worked three
hours to close the wounds in his
scalp.
Soon after the police radio broad
cast a description of the assailant,
Pyts. Herbert Hubbard and L. V.
Denitto arrested Arthur McClary
colored, %, of the .l400 block of v
street NV, at Seventh and P
streets NV. He was charged with
robbery.
Mr.. Williams was found uncon-
Scious beside his cab at Puerto Rico
and Michigan avenues NE. by pass
ersbv early this morning. He told
police his assailant entered his cab
at North Capital street and Florida
avenue, and directed him to drive
out Michigan avenue. His passen-
ger first smashed a whisky bottle
over his head and demanded his
money. Williams said. When he
resisted the man dragged him from
The cab and beat him over the
head with a brick until he was un-
conscious. His wallet, containing S.,
was stolen.
Casualty Hospital doctors said
Mr.. Williams skull may be frac-
tured.
