FRIGHTENS WOMEN
DRUNKARD PROHIBITED SCUFFLE IN MANGERE “When he gets the drink he goes mad and frightens all the women and girls in the place.” This was the character given of Arnold Bonavalett by a witness in the Onehunga Police Court this morning. Bonavalett was charged with drunkenness and using obscene language, and with resisting the police on Saturday night in Coronation Road, Mangere. He appeared in court with a stitched forehead, the result of an encounter with a barbed-wire fence in an unsuccessful scuffle with Constable Hinton. Sergeant Cruickshank said that the accused bore a good character from his employers, but he was in the habit of using indecent language to females when he had had too much to drink. Bonavalett claimed that he had no recollection of the occurrance. His memory was a complete blank. Messrs. J. E. Green and F. C. Soar, J.P.’s, ordered Bonavalett to come up for sentence when called upon. He was also prohibited for 12 months.
