Two of the trio entered the office and shot guard Robert C. Davidson II, 23, 10530 Western Ave., Downey, with a shotgun as he was carrying a bag containing the money to a cashier's window. Davidson's partner, Dick Francis, escaped unhurt. They both are employed by Armored Transport Co." Pictured is Mr. Francis, wounded guard's partner.; See image #00116301 for additional photo in this series.
