Photograph caption dated March 8, 1961 reads, "Officers bring burglary suspects down a fire truck ladder after capturing them on the roof of the Sun Val Market, 8936 Sunland Blvd., Sun Valley, today at 1:40 a.m. Officers said the three transients from Denver, Joseph E. Degesualdo, 34; Charles Morelli, 24, and Keith Hudson, 38, tripped off a silent alarm when they bored a hole into the roof and entered the attic. Officers L. E. Harvey and F. R. Miller make the arrest but have not found the $750 in coins reported by Robert L. Martin, the store's manager, to have been stolen."
