Captured After a Desperate Fight with Officers
Sibler, the alleged rancher killer known as the sheep Duror, was captured Saturday night near Sanderson, Texas, after a violent clash with pursuing officers in which he was wounded and shot several times. He reportedly murdered and robbed B M Dewthorn and W Balston and another rancher in three consecutive days in Val Verde County. He had earlier sold large herds to his victims, who delivered stacks to Del Hin and received checks that were cashed before their deaths. The case drew intense public alarm and initial blame on possible Republican-era tensions before Sibler was overpowered. He survived his wounds and was captured after a fierce chase.
