Absolved In
Fatal Shooting
CHARLOTTE
A coroner's Jury Friday after
noon cleared of any blame City
Policeman J. F. Hoffman in the
fatal shooting of Richard L
Brown of Asheville.
In the Brown death, the evi
dence showed tliat the man had
gone to sleep in a grill on Mc
Dowell on the night of Dec.
27, and had refused to leave
when the proprietor requested
it. The owner finally asked tlie
t>eat patrolman, G. F. William
son, to get the man out of the
grill. Williamson attempted to
do so but met with resistance, so
telephoned for assistance.
Radio Patrolman Hoffman
and Lyles arrived and when the
officers again tried to get Brown
out of the place he fulled a
knife and began slashing at
them. Hoffman was knocked to
his knees in the melee, and,
when Brown rushed him with
the knife, Hoffman shot and
killed the attacker. Dr. W. M.
Summerville, coroner, reported
that he did a blood test on
Brown’s body and found the
blood contained alcohol.
The Jury ruled that the man
came to his death from gunshot
woimds inflicted by Hoffman,
but that the policeman acted la
self defense.

of cigarettes were chemically
analyzed. The findings: of
