The State - News from Oct. 27, 1986

Footprints in the mud led police and bloodhounds to a church outhouse in Odon, Ind., where a California man suspected in a local bank robbery was captured. Martin Lennard Brown, 30, of Fresno was charged with bank robbery, attempted murder and possession of stolen property. After holding up the Marengo State Bank in southern Indiana, police said, the robber fired a shot at a sheriff’s deputy in a chase before he abandoned his vehicle, reported stolen in Fresno, and fled into a wooded area near Odon. When arrested without incident, Brown still had the gun which also had been reported stolen in California, police said.
