Howard Cain

How they died

Deadly force

Cain was one of three suspects, described as cold career criminals, sought in the armed robbery of a branch bank. As police closed in, ringleader Cain murdered one of them with an assault rifle. The three switched vehicles and were quickly re-discovered. Cain's weapon jammed and he was shot to death. The other two were caught before the policeman's funeral.
