A LIFE OF CRIME BEGAN ON THIS DAY IN 1875

On This Day, September 23rd

On September 23, 1875, Billy the Kid was arrested for the first
time after being involved in the stealing of a basket of clothes
from a Chinese laundry. It was a result of a 15-year-old’s prank,
gone wrong.

He later broke out of jail and roamed the American West,
eventually earning a reputation as an outlaw and murderer
with a rap sheet that
allegedly included 21 murders.

The exact details of Billy the Kid’s birth are unknown, other
than his name, William Henry McCarty. He was probably born
sometime between 1859 and 1861, in Indiana or New York.

FIRST MOVING TRAIN ROBBERY ON THIS DAY

On October 6, 1866, the brothers John and Simeon Reno staged the
first train robbery in American history, making off with $13,000 from
an
Ohio and Mississippi railroad train in Jackson County, Indiana.

Of course, trains had been robbed before the Reno brothers’ holdup 
but, these previous crimes had all been burglaries of stationary
trains sitting in depots or freight yards.

The Reno brothers’ contribution to criminal history was to stop a
moving train in a sparsely populated region where they could carry
out their crime without risking interference from the law or curious bystanders.
