Holdup Suspect Found Killed Near Harrisburg
One of two men who staged a $20,000 holdup was found murdered in a cow pasture pond near Harrisburg Pennsylvania. He bore ten $100 bills tied to his legs with rubber bands and a devil and banjo tattoo on his arm. Police noted a double crossing between thieves and believed the survivor killed his partner to keep the rest of the loot. Daniel Lamont identified the dead man as one of two masked bandits who robbed him in Altoona of $13,000 cash plus $7,000 in jewelry. The body showed two .45 bullets in the back and was discovered about 10 miles east of Harrisburg, indicating death about 18 hours earlier.
