(NEW YORK DAILY NEWS) – It’s a crime straight out of the silver screen. U.S. Marshals this week identified Theodore “Ted” Conrad, who was going by the alias Thomas Randele, as the man who had alluded authorities for half a century, according to a Friday news release posted to the agency’s verified Twitter.
Conrad confessed to the crime before his death in May this year.
Marshals traveled this week from Cleveland to Boston where they identified their man, who “had been living an unassuming life in the Boston suburb since 1970,” according to the release. Conrad’s home was situated near where the 1968 Steve McQueen film, “The Thomas Crown Affair,” with which the fugitive was obsessed, had been filmed.
The post Bank teller who committed massive, movie-inspired robbery identified after 52 years appeared first on WND.
