one forcing him from the wheel
and taking his place while the
other sat on his right. The tres
passer on his right held a gun
against his ribs while the other
drove the machine for two blocks
and entered an alley. There they
stopped and Richardson was
robbed of $156.
The two men then left and en-
tered the other machine which
had followed.
LONG HUNTED

the Prince Georges county store
keeper, Quantrille was arrested
shortly afterward by local police
who sought him on the Maryland

was identified by Richardson as
