Four Men Held in Charlotte Holdup < hat lotto, N. C\, Oct. 4.?-Four men, including a former Charlotte police'nan and a mnn who served Union county as deputy sheriff until yesterday, were in jail today as the result of their alleged confessions to ( harlotte police that they enginested the "holdup" of an American Trust company money trucks Wednesday and robbed it of $#4,000. Carl Bailey, Charlotte bank guard who admitted, police said, that he conspired with Victor S. Hunter, former deputy sheriff; Walter Thomas and Richard -McManus, < all of Weddington, Union county, to rob the bank truck, was in jail here. The others were in the Union jail at Monroe and were to be brought here t0? day. Folic erecovered $20,380 of the currency from two fruit jars and a small box buried in Hunter's backyard. They planned today to attempt to locate the remainder. The confessions of the men completely exonertaed Leroy Stanton, bank messenger, who was with Bailey at the time of the "holdup", police said. Stanton aided the officers in the search for the robbers and Hunter and 'McManus were arrested upon his identification. Bailey, who pounded a police beat before he went into the money-guarding business, got Stanton and himself "held up" by Hunter and McManus, police said, in reconstructing the robbery. Thomas came into the picture, according to his confession, by driving the "holdup" men to the spot ^decided upon for the robbery and then helping them to escape in his automobile. Hunter, who worked with Sheriff Fowler, of Union county, as his deputy, for 10 years, handed his chief his resignation when it was demanded shortly after his arrest. Sheriff Fowler expressed surprise when told his deputy was suspected in connection with the case and took part in investigation, largely with a hope of clearing Hunter from any charges. The first part of the "holdup" Wednesday was executed while Stanton was in an express office. When he walked out, he told officers, he found McManus in the strongbox of the truck, hidden from -view by the steel-lined body, and holding a pistol on Bailey. Hunter, his story said, accosted him when he walked out of the office and when he attempted to push the man away, 'Bailey warned him that "another robber" was in the rear of the truck. Stanton said he was made to take his place in the truck while Bailey was "forced" to drive to the edge of the city, where tK$ holdup men tied the bank employes and left them in the rear of the truck. They escaped, according to theirjeonfessions, in a car driven by Thonmis,~wKb~had trailed the truck.
