Joseph Krupp

Joseph Krupp

Officer Joseph Krupp was shot and killed on April 19, 1910, while questioning two suspicious appearing persons in the railroad yards in Haughville.  Officer Albert C. Groves also was shot in the incident, but was not seriously injured.   Additional police units were called to the scene, and after a systematic search of the railroad yards, Walter Whitelock and George Douglas were arrested.  Whitelock confessed and said he did all the shooting at the police, and that Douglas did not draw his weapon.
