Reviewers Bark When Pair
sss Comes Back to Get

Fleeing under pistol fire, two men
believed responsible for scores Of au-
foraohile thefts and burglaries, es-
capped Tuesday night when they were
oyertaken by Detectives Grasshoff and
Bartholomae with more than $500
worth Of stolen merchandise in their

however.
They gained temporary freedom as
they outwitted the officers in a chase
through back yards in the vicinity OF
Sabinas and Castro streets. Within
an hour, however, they were arrested
at a house on Monclova Avenue,
where they had taken refuge.
They were wanted on evidence, it
has taken the detectives months to

In their possession they had an au-
tomobile truck stolen from B. Barren

Of shoes. The car and contents had
been stolen from its parking space
near Goliad and Water streets.
Instead Of complying with the Of
fieers' commands TO halt, the burglars
fled in their touring car, abandoning
tie merchants truck.
I'm the ensuing chase Of more than
twenty blocks the officers were tenn
porarily shaken off. The detectives,
however, returned 10 the spot where
they had encountered the pair and lay
in wait

This strategy was rewarded when the
thieves returned but fled again when
the officers tried to halt them.
When they failed to lose their pur-
suers the bandits abandoned their au-
tomobile and loot at Sabinas and Cas-
fro streets.
Detective Grasshoff opened fire as
tho pair fled down Castro street. At
this move, they forsook the open thor

that she would laugh for joy at see
