Kidnapped 6 Year Old June Robles Held for Ransom in Tucson
In Tucson on April 25 a 6 year old girl from a wealthy Arizona family was abducted on her way home from school. A ransom of 15000 dollars was demanded as police questioned three men and ranchers hunted for the kidnapper. An apparent practical joke by suspects prompted authorities to arrest the trio who claimed innocence and blamed a separate man for the attempt. The case continued as investigators traced a telephone note and a sighting of a car near the abduction.

Nationwide crime rise with Dillinger links spotted
The nation faces a surge of crimes tied to the Dillinger case with fresh kidnappings and robberies across several states. In Elk River Minnesota four men and two women raided a farmer’s home on Frank Oberg’s property taking money and abducting two clerks and two customers, about $4000 total. Authorities fear Dillinger fugitives may have fled toward the area but cannot locate the raiders. In Madrid a major raid yielded similar effects as the government faced a cabinet resignation crisis amid a tense political climate and alarm. President Zamora’s fate and potential amnesty law sparked speculation of a broader confrontation with leftist protests likely to be quelled.
