Banker’s Bankroll Heist: Douglas’ First National Bank Robbed in Broad Daylight

July 3, 1903, will be remembered as a day of brazen thievery in Douglas, Arizona. The First National Bank, a stalwart institution on the city’s main street, fell victim to a daring robbery. At approximately 10:00 AM, a group of unknown assailants stormed the bank, making off with an undisclosed amount of cash. Witnesses report that the robbers moved swiftly, using their knowledge of the bank’s layout to evade security and make their escape. The police, led by the indefatigable W H Brophy, President of the Bank of Douglas, are currently investigating the crime. As Douglas continues to grow and develop, incidents like these serve as a reminder that even the most respectable institutions are not immune to the allure of easy money.
