Police Seek Blonde, 2 Boy Friends, Who Crash in Stolen Car
Police were searching today for a blonde girl, about 18, and two youths who abandoned their stolen automobile after it had crashed with a taxicab last night at Morgan Boulevard and Broadway.
Duncan MacKenzie, 27, of 1154 North Thirty-fourth street, driver of the cab, told police the stolen automobile careened around the intersection on two wheels, crashed into his car and ended up at the curb. He was waiting for a traffic light to change, he said.
Immediately following the crash, a youth and the girl, who had been in the front seat, and a second youth sitting in the rear, jumped out of the car and dashed away. One ran south on Broadway; while the girl and her companion ran north on the same street.
Accident Investigator Stanley Wirtz investigated and learned the abandoned car had been stolen at 7 p.m. from in front of the American Iron Works, 1455 Broadway, about two miles from the accident, which occurred at 10:30 p.m.
