Assistant Fire Chief Paul Britt is short of a Chevrolet touring car, and local police are at a loss to know who was so bold to steal the car Saturday night from in front of the townhall, which is headquarters for police and firemen.
According to night policemen, the car was stolen about 4 o’clock Sunday morning. The key had been left in the car, and the thief had no trouble in making a quick get-away. Both town and county officers spent most of yesterday in trying to find a clue, but so far nothing has been learned.
