Description

Early on a summer morning in 1919, cops and robbers faced off in Sioux City, Iowa. The showdown kicked off at the Carbarn, an unassuming eatery dedicated to the city's streetcar workers. Leading the charge on the side of the law was Detective James Garfield Britton, a veteran officer who'd lost his job as police chief over rising crime rates. The bandits were captained by one Donald "Red" Burzette, a brigand among bootleggers who often resorted to violence to steal loot. That morning, both sides exchanged around 17 gunshots in 10 seconds. But who was left standing in the Carbarn when the shooting stopped?Special thanks to Haley Aguirre for her insight and research help.
