Old News: The Dillinger Gang's deadly bank heist

• The Dillinger Gang had already hit Indianapolis' Massachusetts Avenue State Bank, where they made off with more than $20,000.
• The gang carried out at least a dozen bank robberies between June 1933 and June 1934.

Zoom in: The East Chicago incident marks the moment that Dillinger added murder to his growing list of suspected crimes.

• Patrolman William O'Malley of the East Chicago Police Department was fatally shot while responding to the crime, and witnesses said the bullet came from a gun being fired by Dillinger.
• He was arrested 10 days later in Tucson, Arizona.

Yes, but: Dillinger would never be convicted.

• He escaped Crown Point jail in March while awaiting trial, and he and his gang would add to their rash of robberies throughout the spring and summer.
• "Public Enemy No. 1" met his end July 22 when he was shot and killed by FBI agents outside the Biograph Theater in Chicago.
