BANDITS TRAPPED
RADIO ALARM SUCCEEDS MONTREAL BANK ROBBERS MONTREAL, Dec. 18 Five bandits who robbed a suburban bank to-day of 10,000 dollars were captured without a shot being fired and the whole of the booty recovered. Five minutes after the hold-up the police found the robbers' abandoned car, and immediately afterwards learned that a milk truck had been stolen by the fleeing men. Another radio alarm warned a dozen police cars, which closed in upon the truck and formed a barricade which the bandits could not pass. They then surrendered without a struggle.
