Text | [Athletic vs. Atlantic 10/15/1866] Four suspicious looking youths of the light-fingered fraternity were arrested by the detectives while in search of victims at the base ball match on Monday afternoon. They were all taken before a justice of the peace yesterday morning, but not having been “caught in the act” the evidence was not considered sufficient to hold them, and they were consequently discharged. It may prove a lesson to the rascals for the future to be more prudent while the lynx eyed detectives of Brooklyn are upon them when they least expect it. |
