Two Slain in Firestone Kidnap Try
A staged kidnap attempt targeting billionaire Firestone ended with two gunmen shot dead by Beverly Hills officers as they arrived at his Alpine Drive home. Bailey and Skala, both masked with guns, were tied to burglaries and planned a high stake ransom. Firestone, active in civic life since 1943, had recently traveled to San Francisco and did not stay at his home amid the investigation.
