In July 1966, three men held up a bank in a small town in Ohio and escaped with more than $26,000. During the robbery, one of the
robbers activated
a sequence camera that caused a clicking sound on a radio playing in
the bank, alerting the robbers that photographs were being taken. One robber came behind the teller's cage, stood on a stool, and
hammered the camera with a pistol; however, this photograph was obtained and resulted in his identification. Photographer unknown
