The appellant was indicted for transporting a stolen automobile from the United States to Mexico in violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 2312. After a hearing, with the appellant present and represented by court-appointed counsel, it was determined that he was mentally incompetent and incapable of standing trial. It was also determined that, if released, the appellant would endanger others. He was committed to the custody of the Attorney General and is now confined in the Federal Medical Center, at Springfield, Missouri. The proceedings were pursuant to 18 U.S.C.A. §§ 4244-4248.
