This brutal crime highlighted the violent lengths mob bosses were prepared to go to, simply to have ownership of a particular type of business. Unsolved this mass murder was coldly calculated and while it seems to describe the violence of the times, it indicates a complete disinterest in the lives of others and the total control over authorities to be so overt in the nature of the killings.

A black Cadillac pulled up to the SMC Cartage Company garage around 10:30 a.m. four,maybe five men, two wearing police uniforms poured out of the vehicle. They ordered the seven men inside the garage to line up facing the wall and opened fire with two Thompson submachine guns. Moments later, the gunmen walked out with their hands up, prodded along by the fake cops and drove away. Six of the victims died at the scene.
