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.
