From 1917 to 1919, terror struck the streets of Akron. As soldiers
marched off to World War I and Spanish influenza ravaged the community,
police officers faced a sinister threat.
Murderous kingpin Rosario Borgia placed a bounty on officers' heads for
interfering with his criminal enterprises. Gangsters gunned down seven
cops, killing five, in a series of brazen attacks over fifteen months.
Author Mark J. Price chronicles the crimes, victims, gangsters and the
relentless pursuit of justice.
