Brooklyn police believe Jay B. Allen, arrested in Tacoma, is the hold up man in the East Brooklyn bank robbery of December 18 that left two tellers dead and $16,000 stolen. Allen, recently convicted in Tacoma for the murder of a shipyard worker, is said to be linked by statements from a chauffeur and a bank clerk. He will be returned to New York to face trial, amid ties to a Tacoma bank heist and similar methods in both robberies.
