Pretty Boy Floyd was one of the machine gunners who held up a group of lawmen taking a prisoner to Leavenworth Penitentiary in June 1933. From Georgia originally, Charles Floyd was raised in Sallisaw, Oklahoma, the son of a farmer. Floyd began his criminal career by robbing a local post office of $350 in pennies. The morning of June 17th a train arrived in Kansas City carrying Frank "Jelly" Nash. It was met by police and federal agents who planned to transfer Nash from the train to a car. Unexpectedly Floyd appeared with his machine gun and everything change with a barrage of gunfire. One agent mistook a colleague's weapon for his own. This led to deadly consequences when the shotgun discharged heavy ball bearings that killed the prisoner and a fellow agent in two blasts.
