TORONTO tCPI. —-New York stock promoter Peter Crosby, freed briefly Wednesday after a-n indictment of fraud, theft and false pretences against him was quashed. was rearrested shortly a-fterwaiids on theft charges.
Judge Ian Macdonnell upheld the argument of defence counsel Arthur Martin that the charges of false pretences against Crosby were not valid because they lacked detail.
