Stork Robbery In Butte Ends With Unconscious Victim
Mrs Albert P Work Stork was held up by two armed men in her room at the Moyer building Butte near Broadway and Academy last night a few minutes after 10. They searched her person and room and stole 47 dollars cash plus 200 dollars in jewelry. One robber kept her covered while the other escaped with the loot. She fainted and was revived later. Two suspects were arrested but released when not identified. Mrs Stork says she can positively identify both men and notes a prior attempted robbery years ago. The crime appears planned, with the bandits familiar with her husband Mr Stork. She previously ran eateries on West Park Street and Hamilton Street. Mr Stork works at the High Ore mine.
