Goetz pleads
NZPA-AP New York Bernhard Hugo Goetz pleaded not guilty yesterday to charges of illegal weapons possession over the shootings of four young men on a subway train in December. Judge Stephen Crane reduced Goetz’s bail from SUSSO,OOO ($106,500) to SUSSOOO ($10,650) and set a hearing for February 27.
According to the police Goetz shot four youths during an encounter, in which one youth says he asked Goetz for SUSS ($10.65) to play video games.
A second lawsuit has been filed against Goetz. Troy Canty, aged 18, filed a SUSS million ($10.65 million) suit alleging Goetz shot him “without just cause or provocation.”
