Martin, a young man who drives one of the Hess Bakery wagons, wag-ons, met with a thrilling experience within a stone's throw of the police station, this morning at about 7 o'clock. As he turned the corner of Grant avenue and Twenty-sixth street, he wns confronted by two highwaymen and a lurge revolver. He w.is told to throw up his hands, which he did without hesitancy. The highwayman searched the young man for money and other valuables but, finding none, kicked him and told him to hurry away Martin ran across to the police station sta-tion and reported the holdup, hut he was so excited that he could not give a clear description of the bad men. The officers were at a loss to know who they should look for, but immediately im-mediately rounded up as many suspicious sus-picious characters as tbey could find, finding no one, however, upon whom they could place suspicion. |
