Man in Row Jailed

Camden Courier-Post —

An argument over a pushcart in which a man was severely beaten on the head and face resulted in Joseph Dworanczyk, 29, of 1155 Lowell Street, being sent to jail for four months in police court yesterday.

With his left eye badly blackened and his face cut and swollen to almost twice its usual size, Simon Balicyck, 55, of 1065 Everett Street, told Police Judge Pancoast that Dworanczyk beat him with a board. He laid that the attack occurred at Farnham Park when he refused to give Dworanczyk his pushcart.

Dworanczyk pleaded not guilty to the charge and said he struck Baliyck in self-defense.
