Hunting of Fugitives and Further Violence

The sources record further violence during the 1768 unrest, though they do not state that these incidents occurred at the St George's Fields massacre itself. In one scuffle two prisoners were wounded and only four got away into the fields, where they were subsequently hunted down by the Bucks Militia. Separately, after some soldiers were sent to apprehend a man, he was chased to a barn where one of the pursuing troops shot a person inside wearing a red coat. A contemporary title also records the murder of Allen by a grenadier during the Wilkes and Liberty riots.
