Run Into Stone Wall
OF Is Policemen

Three men who refused to
abandon a stolen truck ran into
what amounted to a stone wall
early today-a quick-forming
roadblock of 16 policemen and
seven police cars.

signed confessions in which the
prisoners admitted a recent safe
robbery job after they had stolen
the truck.

Sergt. C.. I. Smith noticed the
truck pass them on Minnesota
near Pennsylvania avenue Sc.
When 1t. Wolfe saw three men
in it. he radioed for help and
trailed the truck in his police
cruiser: Minnesota avenue, po-
lice explained, is very wide and
there are few spots where the
truck occupants couldn't have
escaped the two officers by fee
ing the truck on foot.
But when six scout cars and
a patrol wagon drew UP across
the avenue, the truck was forced
to stop and was Immediately
surrounded by Is policemen.
Several hours later the three
signed statements admitting a
$50 safe job at the Savage Truck
Co., 1000 block of Half street
Sc, on February 16, two days
after the truck was stolen from
the Saunders Drive-it-Yourself
agency in the 400 block Of New
Jersey avenue NV.
Safe Squad Detective Sergt.
William w. Friel said the three
men admitted taking the safe
and placing it in the rear of the
truck. While one drove, he con-
tinued, the other two vainly
tried to open it.
Opened Safe in Country.
Finally. on a side road, near
Collington, Md, the three of
them forced the safe open and
pulled out the $50.
They left the safe In some
bushes, Sergt. Friel said, but left
a sledge hammer, a crow bar
and an ak in the rear of the
truck.
