New Charge Placed
Against Man Whose
Auto Strikes Girl
For the first time appearing on the
police records of Omaha, the charge "For
Investigation" was registered against F.
L. Sparting of the South Side.
Sparting, while driving an auto at a
moderate rate of speed, struck Roes Man
flto aged 6 years, 1104 South Thirteenth
street, who ran in front of the car. The
child was injured about the head and
later attended by Dr. C. B. Folts. who
Is undetermined as yet aa to the serious
ness of her injury. Sparting escaped
with much difficulty from a mob, several
of whose number were armed with
knives, bent on his destruction. lie ap
peared at police headquarters, where his
version of the accident was later sub
stantiated by witnesses. He was released
on his own bond.
The charge "For Investigation has
originated through Just such occurrences
as these," asserted Captain Marshall
"Heretofore men who have been held
for similar Incidents have been termed
on the books 'Suspicious. Characters."
This charge being erroneous and a mark
against many an honest, upright man's
reputation. Chief Dunn has approved the
new term, which covers the ground and
does not charge anyone with anything
which they may not happen to be."
