PITTSBURGH.—Preston Terry,
31, lost his left foot as he was
dragged for three blocks behind
the auto of a "Peeping Tom" he
was attempting to catch.
Terry told doctors he was en

He seized the man, the doctors
quoted him as saying, but the

drove off in a car. Terry's foot
was caught in a loop of rope or
wire hanging from the auto. He
was dragged three blocks before
his foot was severed.
