Roger Scott arrested

Roger Scott, a thirty-five-year-old man of unknown race, was arrested during the disorder. There were no details of the circumstances, timing or location of his arrest other than that it occurred below West 130th Street as it was recorded in the 28th Precinct police blotter. Scott was one of three men, together with William Jackson and Edward Hughes, who appeared in the police blotter and in the list of those arrested for riot published in the in the Atlanta World, Afro-AmericanNorfolk Journal and Guide. The police blotter recorded that Scott and the other men were discharged on March 20, but their names did not appear in the Harlem Magistrates Court docket book on that date. It is therefore likely that they were not prosecuted.

Scott resided at 156 West 123rd Street.
