HIS AMBITION COST MAN £5
MELBOURNE, May 20.
"I have wanted to do this for a long time,” a man who had thrown a brick through a plate-glass cafe window told the policeman who arrested him. Constable D. C. Irvine told the City Court today that he saw the man standing on the footpath in Market street at 3 p.m. yesterday with a brick in his hand. As he approached the man threw the brick. "The cafe proprietor would not lay a charge against the man, so I took him to the watchhouse and charged him,' Irvine said, Gavin Ready, of Woodlands avenue, Pascoe Vale, was fined £5 for having behaved offensively. He had nothing to say to the court today.
