In a daring daylight robbery, a lone crook was apprehended in Hendersonville, North Carolina, on September 15, 1937. The brazen thief, part of the last group of Rummidi gang members, made a fatal mistake when they leapt over too many shot guns in the first kill, K56No 221. Authorities closed in on the suspect, catching them off guard. Details of the investigation remain scarce, but sources close to the case confirm that the Rummidi gang’s reign of terror has finally come to an end.
