Stupendous Raid of Alleged Speakeasies In Mt Vernon
A large force of eleven state liquor license inspectors along with local police conducted a five hour raid on Mt Vernon venues suspected of illicit alcohol sales. They seized whiskey, beer, gin and other contraband from about two dozen locations, aided by a painter employed by Harry Bunn named Elmer Ottino, and then returned to Columbus. The operation disrupted known bootleg hubs and involved extensive searches and confiscations across South Main, West Vine, Arch avenues, and East Front Street.
