On February 14, 1929, seven members of Chicago’s George “Bugs” Moran North Side gang were gunned down inside a nondescript garage at 2122 North Clark Street. One of the most horrifying acts of violence in organized crime history, the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre stunned the citizenry of Chicago — and the nation. News coverage of the Massacre generated public outrage and dramatic responses from both supporters and opponents of Prohibition.
Join Geoff Schumacher, Vice President of Exhibits & Programs at The Mob Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada, as he outlines the events that led to the massacre, explains what happened on that fateful day, and examines the aftermath of this deadly episode in Chicago history.
