The trio escaped in a big sedan parked a few yards from the store. Odoardo anxious to be of service to the police in his subsequent complaint darted out of the store to observe the di- rection in which the men fled. One of the three fired a shot at him. Odoardo sought the safety of his store until the police arrived.
 The hc!d-up was staged shortly after o'clock. Odoardo's store is located but few yards from Merry street. Cnly the two men were in the place when the three bandits entered. One glance at his visitors was sufficient for the owner. It was not necessary for him to ask the nature of their call for each carried q revolver in his hand, Odoardo claimed.
