In February 1931, Mr. & Mrs. Robert Hendricks" and three others tied up fourteen employees at the Hastings National Bank and walked away with over $27,000 from the vault.
They then returned home to plan a robbery of the First National Bank for the following day.
Even though police quickly surrounded the house, the robbers managed to capture all eleven officers on the scene and make a getaway.
Retired police lieutenant and historian Monty McCord recounts the crime and the grisly aftermath in the first account of the heist ever
to be published.
