A witness stated that he was doing some work when he heard a series of shots, though it was dark he stated that he saw two cars. One had one guy, the other a handful. He watched as the car containing the group turn around and then stop, he saw a gun step from the sedan and fire a number of shots into the ground.
After the cars vacated, the witness approached the road, wondering why a man would fire into the ground. Reaching the spot, the witness found the body of Mandel. He had been shot six times in the head and another ten in the body. Though he had heard the initial shots, the witness failed to see Mandel's body tossed from the car.
Mandel had been arrested about one hundred times including a handful of times for murder.

Hey Patrick was hoping you could help with information on John Doyle who was arrested with Jack Diamonds on February 4 1914, I am trying to connect Doyle to John j Doyle who was accused of killing William Egan leader of Egan Rats, Thanks in advance Matt
My thinking without much proof after that arrest for armed robbery from Straus jewelry store on February 4 1914, Doyle fled on to St Paul Minnesota, a known safe haven for wanted gangsters,he ended up in South Dakota State Penitentary in 1916 for safe blowing under Thomas Dawson, there is alot more to the story, so please let me know your thoughts, Thanks Matt
Hi Matt,
I have no idea about Doyle. Looks he was sent to Elmira after his arrest. Don't have anything else on him. Good luck with your search.
