On April 5, 1920, Frederick Charles Smith, også kendt som “Den rødhårede Bandit”, gik ind i Easton-Taylor Trust Company på 4474 Easton Avenue. Smith havde en revolver i hver hånd og forlangte penge fra kassen. Frygter for sit liv, ekspedienten faldt prompte $15,309 i en sæk. John Lanigan, bankens præsident, sad på sit kontor ud for lobbyen
