SHOCKING CASE OF POLICE BRUTALITY!

At half-past two o'clock this morning a police constable while on duty discovered amannamed Patrick Brennan lying in tbe gutter apparently the worse for liquor. On attempting to remove the man to the lock up the constable found that he was seemingly senseless, and had broken his leg just above the knee. The constable, who was unable to discover from the poor fellow how long he had lain in that helpless i;ondition, immediately procureid a truck from the police station (one being kept there in case of emergencies). The officer returned, and with assistance lifted the sufferer into the truck, and conveyed him to the look-up, where he was charged with drunkenness and placed in a cell, no medical aid being called in, and no assistance beingrendered further than unstrapping his fractured wooden limb, and taking it from him to prevent further injury. The man is now.undergoing the penalty for the offence of drunkenness, while the police are having his broken leg mended.
