Summary: |
At 5:30 AM on November 19, 1923, Patrolman Elmer Cobb left his home to begin his 6:00 shift at Police Headquarters, just six blocks away. Cobb never made it to work, that day. He was murdered behind a billboard at Ninth and Pearl Streets by an unknown assailant. The assailant struck Cobb on the head and then shot him in the head, execution style.
=====================================================
Patrolman Cobb was shot and killed by unknown assailants while on his way to work. He was walking from his home to headquarters just six blocks away when he was attacked behind a billboard and shot execution style. His murder was never solved due to Prohibition-era political corruption.
|
Disposition: |
The investigation of Cobb's murder was clouded by Prohibition, payoffs and the city politics of the day; the crime was never solved. |
