Chicago : 1929: Valentine’s Day Massacre

No one has rated this yet.

This brutal murder of seven of Al Capone’s rival gangsters is one of history’s most notorious massacres. Capone set up a sting that sent George “Bugsy” Moran’s main men to a nearby garage. There, Capone’s henchmen, dressed as police officers, lined them up and riddled them with bullets. Seven bushes now mark the spot (at Clark Street and Dickens Avenue).
