Happy Valentine's Day... Highball
Friday 14 February 2014 at 12:33 amThe Saint Valentine's Day Massacre remains an unsolved crime, where 85 years ago, 7 men were found murdered in Chicago's SMC Cartage Company Garage. The only surviving witness to the carnage was a German Shepherd named "Highball", that belonged to one of the victims (John May). Highball's frantic barking alerted the neighborhood, where upon the Police were called in. Police discovered the dog chained beneath a truck & howling in fear.
It's believed that the Chicago cops had the dog put down shortly after the murders. Stories are told that on dark & lonely nights, passersby can still hear the woeful howling of the long-dead canine coming from where the SMC Garage once stood.
Happy Valentine's Day...
