James Evans, negro, apparently from 20 to 25 years of age, was lodged in jail at Asheboro Monday without privilege of bond on charge of shooting his father in the leg in the scuffle between the two Monday following a quarrel. Information received in Asheboro is that the father’s leg had to be amputated and there is serious doubt as to his recovery from the wound. No details of the shooting are available except that the father and son quarreled over something and the shooting followed.
