SNATCH OF £l00
Totalisator Window (N.Z. Press Association) WELLINGTON, February 24. One hundred pounds in notes was snatched from a payout window at the Hutt Park Raceway last night. A man presented a .ticket, thought by the police to have been a dud, at the window about 7.45 p.m. He then snatched the teller’s clipboard, holding £lOO in notes, and made off Mr T. Marwick, secretary of the Wellington Trotting Club, which conducted the meeting, said tonight that as far as he knew none of the stolen money was reinvested on the totalisator. A man was arrested and will appear in the Lower Hutt Magistrate's Court tomorrow
