BOUND BY BANDIT,
DOG FREES YOUTH
Atlanta and Fulton county police
are searching for a bold burglar who
lived up to all the press agents’ ac
counts of a house ransacker when he
tied Russel P. Cassaday, 15, hand
and foot, slugged the youth with
something Sussell says must have
been a blackjack, and then proceeded
to the business of rifling the Cas
saday home on Mathieson avenue,
near Buckhead.
The melodramatic experience of the
boy was heightened by the fact that
his pet dog, sniffing about the house
is said to have found the bound boy,
and by tugging at the ropes, freed
the burglar’s victim.
Police said the housebreaker must
have been frightened away, for noth
ing was missing from the Cassaday
home. Bureau drawers and pockets of
clothing had however, been search
ed for valuables.
Russell’s story of the highly effi
cient intruder was that he was alone
in the house Saturday night about 7
o’clock and was eating his supper
when the burglar suddenly appeared.
“He took a long rope I had been
using,” said Russell, “and, keeping me
covered with a pistol, tied me so I
could hardly move. Then he tied a
hendkerchief across my mouth so I
couldn’t make any noise. He hit me
with something and I don’t remember
any more until I heard a door slam
as he went out.’”
Then the dog rushed to the rescue,
but Russell believes it was at least
two hours from the time of the bur
glar’s appearance until he was able
to work free with the assistance of
his dog.
