A Tacoma policeman looks over his report on an accident involving a runaway convertible which occurred on Wednesday, July 26, 1950. The automobile was left with its motor still running. It jumped the curb and came to rest against a light pole at 9th and Commerce. A "No U Turn" sign is lying at the feet of interested spectators. The owner of the vehicle had left his car at the Roxy theater corner just below Broadway momentarily to pick up his children. (TNT 7-27-50, A-11; TPL-5873)
