LOUIS (-A 12 year-old boy caught up with fleeing gunman last night only to lose hit bicycle, thus inadvertently helping the man escape in a comedy of errors. It all began when the man en tered a confectionery in midtown St. Louis, pulled out I gun and de manded money. A customer entered. The 1 gun man courteously let the store own er wait on the customer, but the owner, Joseph Eno, took advan tage of the open door and fled down the street shouting. . The gunman fired it Eno unsuc cessfully. Nearby resident! began pouring from their homes. .The gunman fled In the other direction with the crowd in hot pursuit. Patrolman Emil Boulicoult saw the mob running toward him shout ing, "Stop thief." He pulled out his gun but couldn't tell who the culprit was. With a rush the would-be bandit and crowd was past him so Bouli coult ended up chasing the chasers. Then James Nations, 12, mount ed on his trusty two-wheeler, took over. But one push from the gunman and the boy was on the ground while the fugitive rapidly pedaled away from the panting crowd. The bicycle was found later but not the gunman.
