This 1923 American LaFrance Fire Engine, which responded to the 1934 fire at Hotel Congress, is being restored by the Greater Tucson Fire Foundation. A fire at the hotel flushed out three members of the gang, who were noticed by firefighters who remembered mug shots from detective magazines. A ruse pulled one of Dillinger's best gunmen into Police Chief C.A. Wollard's office. Dillinger surrendered to an officer who said, "Reach for the moon, or I'll cut you in half."
