Ladies and gentlemen, we take you now behind the scenes of a police headquarters in a great American city, or under the cold, glaring lights will pass before us the innocent, the vagrant, the thief, the murderer.
This is the lineup. All right, that's all right. Right behind me. Well, I touched him out. Sure, but I couldn't just sit there in the middle of the street.
Everybody blowing horns back. Number four, John Kaylor.
alias Jack Johnson. How long is that? 89th Street. Graham, no identifications. Run on the next group.
A bunch of them down looking at the mug files. I'm going to see Bader. A great job like this in six years. Still unconscious? Doesn't look like he'll make it.
Oh, Chief. I just had the witnesses look at the lineup. Didn't spot anybody. Five years. In six years. Now here's how it stacks up, Chief. Five men went into the bank at 11 this morning.
And here's the bank and tell they got away with close to 100,000. and ran for the street in this bank, got pulled a gun, stained shots with one of the holdup men. Julian Boulade, yeah, that's right.
Boulade and the gutter, both in pretty bad shape, unconscious, and unlikely to live. Sergeant Quine's over with Boulade in case he regains consciousness. The other form of Boulade on the sidewalk, piloting who had green sedan, witnesses say it was either a Chrysler or a Plummer.
Couldn't get the license number covered with mud. The witnesses have identified two of the holdup men, Liam and Jack Holster there. They like to have those boys. They've never operated an air chief. All we know about them is what you got from Denver.
