Gangs Continue Flatbush Attacks Continued from Page 1 "unless the police do something constructive about it-like storing the cop-on-the-beat!" The woman's claim that mugging continues in Flatbush was corroborated by this reporter. A woman in the. 20's was walking on Rutland Road, ward Troy Ave.

The woman welcomed the suggestion and they proceeded to walk toward Troy Ave. Suddenly, as they approached an empty car parked near corner of Troy Ave. and Rutland Road, the "gentleman" pulled out a monkey wrench from a pocket. He brandished the weapon in front of her face. "Don't move or I'll kill you," he grunted.

The woman tried to pull away, but he grabbed her arm and pushed her toward the car. The woman retained enough composure to blurt out: "I'm a very sick woman and have weak heart. If you bother me, I'm liable to die." He Trails Her in Car The retort caught the man completely by surprise. warned her not to cail out, then jumped into the car. As the woman, trembling with fright, hurried up Troy Ave.

"She screamed and ran away. He followed, holding a knife in his hand. Thank God, she was near enough home to reach it alive and in one piece. "But you could holler bloody murder in this neighborhood, and, unless a neighbor heard your outcry, you'd either be brutally beaten or a dead duck. "There's one consolation, though.

Ward, 56, a Newark policeman for 25 years, dented yesterday that he had withheld information on gambling and alleged police corruption from his superiors. Patrolman Ward delivered his testimony at a hearing in City Hall here before Commissioner John B. Keenan, Director of Public Safety, on departmental charges that the patrolman was guilty of insubordination and neglect of duty.

The charges against Ward stemmed from his activities in the 1948 Newark municipal elections, in which he was an unsuccessful candidate for seat on the City Commission. In his campaign, Ward had made statements that he had evidence and information about criminal activities in the city and would "name names" with respect to underworld links to public officials and law forcement personnel. "I offered 10 times to make written report about these things but I was told that it would not be necessary," Ward testified regarding the charge that he had refused to give his information to Police Chief Frank J. O'Neil and Deputy Chief Frederick Lacey. Chief O'Nell and Deputy Chief Lacey previously had testified that Ward refused to divulge to them details of the tions" he had promised in the election campaign.

Commissioner Keenan reserved decision on the charges against Ward at the conclusion of the patrolman's testimony.
