Unearthed Bonnie & Clyde Photo

I’m sure the cops were aiming for the tires!!

 

I think Buck Barrow was a shutter bug. There are plenty of pics of the whole clan but Buck is not present in many

 

Ummmm, actually Buck died in Dexter Iowa (or was shot)......I know because I grew up there. The same Dr. that worked on Buck, was my Dr. when I was a little boy......and the sheriff was a dude named John Love. He went on to open a shoe repair store in Dexter. I used to go by from time to time and talk to John....I was like 8 years old, but he was always cool to me

On July 19, 1933, Buck was mortally wounded in the head during a shootout at the Red Crown Tourist Court at Platte City, Missouri. The bullet opened up a large hole in Buck's forehead that exposed his brain and caused severe loss of blood.[4] Blanche was also wounded in the same gunfight. She and her husband escaped, however, along with Bonnie, Clyde, and W. D. Jones. Despite his ghastly head wound, and loss of blood, Buck was sometimes fully conscious, and talked and ate.

On July 24, Buck, near death, was wounded in the back during yet another shootout, this time near an abandoned amusement park between Redfield and Dexter, Iowa. Bonnie, Clyde, and W. D. Jones, all wounded in the same gunfight, escaped. Buck and Blanche, though, were captured.

Blanche survived her wounds, although losing sight in one eye. Extradited to Missouri, she was tried for the attempted murder of Sheriff Holt Coffey at Platte City. She was convicted and sentenced to ten years in prison.
