Police Seek ; Bandits
In Bank Ho|dup Who
Abducted Salesman
By the Associated Press

BALTIMORE. June 1.-THE
FBI and police from Washing
ton. Virginia and Maryland are
seeking three gunmen who held
up a Baltimore branch bank yes
terday and escaped with 81 ,439.
The trio fed in a stolen automo-
bile after q passing truck driver
shouted "holdup."
Crammed inside the trunk of
the getaway car was Eugene F.
c. Wagner, a used-car salesman,
who had been demonstrating the
car to two of the men an hour
earlier. He was freed after the
car was abandoned on North
Charles street near Penn Station.
Two men who saw the robbery
had been able to trail the bandits
half way to the spot where they
left the car. Police swarmed into
the area In a few minutes, but
the gunmen disappeared.
MIR. Wagner said he was taking
two prospects on a demonstration
drive when one Of them pulled q
pistol. They forced him into the
trunk and drove around for some
time, making several stops.
Brandish Shstsuiis.
just after II am. two men wear
ing sun glasses sauntered into IN
Twenty fifth street and Kirk ave.
nue. branch of the First National
Bank, in the northeast part o1
the downtown section. They BRAN
dished sawed-off. double-barrelec
shotguns and lined up four Gus
toners and three bank employees
against a wall.
One man stood at the front
door to intercept new arrivals and
the other started scooping money
out of teller's working cash
drawer.
He had barely started rounding
up the cash when there was q
commotion out front. Jack Blu
menthal, driving by in a truck
saw what was going on and
shouted "holdup."
Passerby Threatened.
Norman Cramer was walking
past the bank at the moment.
AS he drew abreast of the holdup
car parked in front. the man at
the wheel threatened him with a
gun. Mr.. Cramer ducked around
a corner of the bank just as the
other two robbers came out the
front door.
Mr.. Cramer got william Doran,
who runs used-car lot next to
the bank, and they took out after
the getaway car as 1t pulled away
from the bank. There was a fast
chase through six or eight blocks
of back streets before they lost
track of the bandits.
Police theorized the holdup
men locked Mr.. Wagner In the
trunk so that they could complete
the bank robbery before he would
be able to report the car stolen.
