H0LDUP CHASE
JA|LS THUGS

Shots were fired early today in
an exciting pursuit by police Of
two men alleged to have robbed a
gas station in the 5000 block Ben
ming Rd. N. E., near the intersec-
ton of Anacostia Road.
AS the climax of the chase,
one of the men was captured,
while the other escaped when he
fled the bullet-ridden disabled car
when it crashed into parked
automobile at Georgia and New
Hampshire Avenues Northwest.
Later the second man was
captured.
Ralph Jones, alias Moore, %,
Of the 500 block Sixth st. N. w.,
was captured with the car.
Walter English, alias Thomas
Conroy, %, of the same address,
who fled when the car crashed,
but was picked up later by De-
tective Leo Murray at a house in
the 1900 block of K st. N. w.
Murray said police had informa-
ton that English could be found
at that address, and when he
went to make the arrest, English
hit him, cutting his lip.
English recently was released
from Lorton prison, where he
had served a term on a charge
OF HOUSEKEEPING, according to
police.
According to Policeman r. l..
Rison, he and Policeman j. Blick
approached the gas station just
as the hold-up occurred. They
saw the bandit car leaving the
scene and gave chase.
With Blick driving and Rison
with gun in hand, the two cars
sped through the streets toward
AnacoStia, over the Pennsylvania
Avenue bridge, up Pennsylvania
Avenue and then in a zig.zag path
through the southeast, northeast
and northwest sections.
RiSon said he shot one of the
rear tires of the looters' car, but
it did not stop until one of the
bullets went through the back of
the car and it crashed into the
parked machine.
The roadster used by the holdup
men was taken to the Tenth pre-
cinct, while Jones was taken to
the Eleventh precinct, where he
was booked for investigation.
Police say he admitted the gas
station robbery.
Policeman Rison said that when
the gas station holdup occurred,
Jones had a nickel-plated re-
volVer, but when searched at the
police station he did not have the
gun, but carried ammunition
for it.
The thugs obtained 1888 in
the holdup from Robert Gibson,
on duty at the service station,
