No Crime Wave in Elizabeth City, May 17, 1924

No Crime Wave Here

No crime wave now sweeps in Elizabeth City at present, defendants in the recorders court of late having been few in number and up, for the most part, for minor offenses. Only three were before Trial Justice Spence Saturday morning, and all of these were let off with the costs of charges of operating a motor car with defective lights. The defendants were F.L. Bradfield and Lonny Bundy, and Jim C. Shannon, colored.
