Des Moines links bank robberies to Iowa gang tied to Capone
Three men arrested in San Antonio for robbing the St Benedict bank and attempting another in Austinville are described by James Risden, head of the state bureau of investigation, as part of a broader northwest Iowa crime wave. Myron Martin allegedly led the gang, claiming ties to Al Capone in Chicago and planning similar methods in Iowa. Martin reportedly directed the robberies while a second car handled transfers.
