The Sentinel is mistaken, as usual. It states that Perfecto Rodriguez drew his revolver when attempting to make an arrest recently in this city, and when resistance was offered clubbed the fellow, knocking him down. While making the arrest the officer was assaulted and some- how the belligerent got the officer’s front finger on his right hand in his mouth, biting it to the bone. It was then that the constable drew his pistol, and knocked his opponent down. He was entirely justified, and still has a very sore finger.
