In the 1930s, bank robberies were a craze. This one out of Cincinnati may take the cake.

Perusing old Enquirer pages on Newspapers.com, a headline from June 22, 1930, caught my eye: “Robbers Kidnap Bank Cashier. – Time-Lock Stops Attempted Robbery At Reading.”

So I followed the case through the newspaper coverage in The Enquirer and the Cincinnati Post.

It played out like a James Cagney gangster movie.
