gun, a light Thompson model, fired
from the shoulder, swept from side
to side, shattering windows in houses
and saloons and endangering a dozen
or more pedestrians in the vicinity.
One passerby was amoung the
wounded.
The bandits appeared in two large
autos. both stolen. The first car
bore down on Jacob Christman, mo-
torcycle policeman, assigned to guard
the truck. AS Christman lay uncon-
scious in the road, the bandits turned
the machine gun on him. Then they
swung the gun to the truck and
turned it on the driver, John Enz,
and Patrick S. Quinn, his helper.
The bandits threw both men to the
ground. AS they laid there the BAN

and more bullets entered their
bodies.

While the others were looting the

wheel and moved the truck back

later in the hospital. Both Christ
man and Quinn may die.
The exact amount taken has not
been checked up and some estimates
placed it at over 100000.
