Texarkana Patrols Tighten as Phantom Killer Suspect Sought
Texarkana residents slept easier after Texas peace officers joined the hunt for the so called phantom killer blamed for five deaths in six weeks. Ten DPS cars and a mobile radio unit arrived to reinforce patrols while liquor dealers moved to voluntary early closures. Capt. Gonzaullas of the Texas Rangers questioned a claimed confession and said the killer would face questions if caught. A found body was identified as Earl Clift McSpaden, an intern to a storage tank builder, killed by unknown persons before being hit by a train, with no link established to the Texarkana murders.
