When she reached the bed- room of her brother-in-Jaw, Joseph F. Mezzacapo, she was confronted by a strange man, She asked what he wanted, she said, and he repli ‘want you,’ and began to shoot. One bullet struck her arm near the body, while the other two went into the wall. . ‘ . The police said that from the posi- tion of the bullets it was practically impossible for them to have heen fired by a second person. They were fired with Mezzacapo's revolver, which ‘was found in his bureau drawer after the shooting, with a smudge of face pow- der on the handle. Mezzacapo, who is President of the United Garment and Spongers’ Union, said he has a permit for the revolver. Mrs. Petty has a daughter six years old.
