Robbers forced three victims from the Packard-Nash garage on south First Street to drive out into the country and lock them in a country church for over an hour. The trio, Mrs. F. L. Rickey, Ernest Long, and Max Gibbons, were unharmed but detained as the bandits fled with a Chrysler and a suitcase. The incident ended with the captives released by a farmhand and returned to town.
