SENSATIONAL ARREST
AUCKLAND, 14th November 1913. A sensational arrest took place near the Hospital this afternoon, when a youth, Charles George CHATFIELD, was arrested on a charge of attempting to discharge a loaded revolver at a special constable, Cecil Lynch. He was wearing a special constable's badge. A party of "specials" were going over the Grafton-road bridge, when they saw Chatfield. Two constables approached the man and enquired where he had got the badge. He replied that it was his special constable badge. Not feeling satisfied, Lynch informed Chatfield he would have to go to the Domain camp to be identified. Chatfield attempted to run away, but one of the "specials" caught him by the coat and placed his arms round him. When the constable did this he saw Chatfield raise his right hand, and he felt something touching the side of his head. Thinking it was a baton the "special" overthrew the accused and held him down on the ground.
"Whilst I did this," said the special constable later, "I saw some of the other constables relieve the accused of a revolver which he held in his right hand."
From accounts given by other constables, it seems that Chatfield had the weapon - a fully loaded one - pointed at Lynch. Chatfield then placed his hand in one of his side coat pockets. His hand was removed from the pocket, from which Lynch abstracted another loaded revolver of larger calibre than the first one.
Chatfield then submitted quietly and was taken to the Domain camp. On the way there he handed over a number of loose cartridges to Special Constable Lynch. Afterwards he was removed to the city police station, where he was charged with attempting to discharge a revolver at one Cecil Lynch. Accused is said to be only 18 years of age, and is described as a horsehair worker.
