HOLD-UP BY GIRLS
Lonely Garage Robbed
(Received November 28, 7.5 p.m.)
Rutherford (New Jersey),
November 27.
Two girls, aged about 16, wearing rolled socks and with bobbed hair, held up a lonely garage and stole 60 dollars and four gallons of petrol. A car drove up shortly after midnight. The girl driver joked with the attendant and ordered petrol. She then asked permission to use the telephone. The attendant suddenly felt a pistol pressed into his hack. “This is a stick-up. You don’t want to die,” she said. He was forced to surrender his takings and ordered to face a wall. She ripped the telephone from the wall and walked to the door, saying: "Wait five minutes or else.'. . The attendant ruefully told .the police they seemed nice girls.
