Crime Does Not Pay #31
Cinnamon O'Connor, a Chicago mob boss flush with money from years of extorting small-time punks, plans a big robbery at the Oak Grove Country Club in July 1932 with his gang. When police receive a tip and pursue O'Connor's getaway car, a shootout ensues involving officers led by Sergeant Hogan; O'Connor's arm is severed at the elbow during the chase. The criminals escape but ultimately meet their end—O'Connor drowns after falling into water, while his accomplices are killed in a subsequent confrontation, demonstrating that crime does not pay.
