Alleged Rum-Run- ner is in Oshawa Hospital Paul Comet, aged 40, South Thorald, is lying in the Oshawa Hospital with a bullet in his lung after a brush with a squad of provincial police which oc- curred on the Kingston Highway, near the farm of G .Norman Irwin, three miles east of Whitby, shortly after 1 o'clock on Saturday morning. Al- though seriously injured his condition this morning was reported as favor- able. Comet was shot, it is said, when with a companion he attempted to dash from his car and escape in the 'dark over the fields. Highway Traffic Officer John Kay whose beat extended from Scarboro to Toronto, fired the shot which pierced the man's lung, it is stated. He 'thought he had fired high but in the darkness he could not see the man. His companion was arrested, police stating that they found 150 gallons of straight alcohol in the car which they had abandoned. Inspector Jerry Jerome, of the high- way traffic officers' squad, Highway Traffic Officer E. Richardson and Highway Traffic Officer Kay were the men who went in pursuit of the al- leged bootleggers. They had been waiting on the highway near the Irwin farm watching for liquor runners. An accident occurred in which one car side-swiped another. The constables went to the scene and a minute later a high-powered car sped by. "There go the rum-runners boys," someone called. Immediately a chase was taken up and Comet evidently seeing that he could not over distance the fast police motorcycles suddenly brought his car to a stand and with his companion essayed to escape. p-- OFFERS |F.
