LOS ANGELES AT CHESTNUT ANAHEIM PHONES 884 A Highwayman Only Wanted Joy Ride Held Up Anaheim Man and Enjoyed Trip Around County Sheriff's officers are seeking a bandit who staged at least two holdups Tuesday night, but asked of his victims no more than a ride in their automobiles. F. L. Armstrong, 917 North Clermont street, Anaheim, reported to the sheriff's office, shortly after 11 o'clock, that as he was driving along the road, a man, described as a Mexican, 21 years old, stepped out in the road and flagged him. Armstrong said that when he stopped, the man drew a pistol on him and then opened the door of the car and got in ordering him to drive around the county. They drove for some time, and on reaching the outskirts of Los Alamitos, another machine was encountered. At this time the bandit told Armstrong to stop, that he wanted to ride in the other machine, but for Armstrong not to attempt to call the police, as he would be following him. With this threat, the man got out of the Armstrong car and held up the other driver. Armstrong reported he saw the bandit enter the other machine, in approximately the same manner he got in his car, and drive away.
