Description: "A Ku Klux Klan sympathizing serial killer driven by his hatred of "colored" people prowled the streets of the black ghetto in Dayton, Ohio.  He stalked and shot black men at random after midnight; the first murder sparked the worst riot in the City's history.  The shadowy vigilante was a classic 'loner.' He believed he was doing God's bidding in his effort to stop the mixing of races and, in particular, the Federal Court-ordered desegregation of public schools. The streets turned bloody red as he evaded capture." --
