Used Water Streams 1 ‘As they approached the Miller Ave- nue gate of the Ford plant, streams of water which froze where it struck were turned on the crowd from an overhead bridge. A Ford employe who viewed the fighting from the top of a factory building, said he saw Bennett alight! from the car, staggering from head injuries, and, waving to police to fol- low him, totter toward the crowd. Police overtook him, this witness) said, put him in a car and whisked him away. An eye witness said police were lifted up beneath the viaduct and that as the marchers approached, someone called out, “If you come on,! you're going to get it.” They came! on, and pistols and shotguns sprayed lead through the crowd. A Ford em- ploye said between 200 and 300 shots were fired at the marchers before they fled, leaving one dead, three ae and several score injured be- ind.
