Who Has Right to Stop and Search Your Car? April 10, 1925

Rappattas-Lindsay Case Is Attracting Attention

The case of Charles Rappattas versus R.B. Lindsay, which is to be heard in Rockingham this Friday, has caused considerable comment in town this week. The complaint states that Charles Rappattas and J.P. Swearingen, returning from Hamlet last Friday night in the former’s car, were stopped on the Highway in Richmond County near the Drowning Creek Bridge by R.B. Lindsay at the point of a gun, and that Lindsay insisted on making a search of the car. The outcome of the hearing will be watched with interest by many persons in Southern Pines.
