Grand Jury to Probe Manslaughter Charge Against Oaklyn Man
Bail which had been furnished after his arrest last night, was accepted this morning for security as Thomas Atkins, 110 East Clinton avenue, Oaklyn, was held for the grand jury on a technical charge of manslaughter.
The hearing in traffic court before Judge Bertman was the aftermath of the fatal accident at Ninth street and Morgan boulevard last night.
Atkins was driver of the automobile which struck Mrs. Emma Scholl, 67 years old, 694 Tulip street. Mrs. Scholl died as she was being carried into West Jersey Hospital a few minutes later
Walter Keown appeared as counsel for Atkins. Keown said he was satisfied that the grand jury, after investigating the accident, would exonerate the defendant.
William Menhenick, 50 years old, of Parry, was fined $15 on a charge of reckless driving. He was arrested after William Lamarcus, 1827 Gallingham street, Philadelphia, said Menhenick's car struck his auto at Eighth and Linden streets.
Arrested on complaint of Policeman William Brickner, a Public Service taxicab driver, Jubulam Gandy, 26 years old, 103 North Seventh street, was fined $10 for speeding.
Brickner said he chased Gandy's cab from Broadway and Benson to Sixth and Penn. He said Gandy exceeded the speed limit the entire distance.
