The Dickens-Power Gang Boston & Schenectady 1936-1938

The William E. Dickens-Sidney Power Gang was active in the New England states in the late 1930s. The gang leaders were killed in shootouts with law enforcement by the end of 1937. However several associates weren't apprehended by law enforcement until early 1938 and later. The gang pulled robberies, cracked safes and stole cars, among other crimes. The remnants of the band were apprehended in Gloversville and Schenectady, New York, where they were continuing their crime spree.
