                        AUDUBON CONSTABLE SHOT;
                        FOUR BANDITS ESCAPE
                        
              Detroit, Minn., June 25 - A. SINCUSH, Audubon constable,
            was shot in the leg today by one of four men concealed
            behind an elevator.
              Sheriff EDWARD SWANSON of Becker county said that infor-
            mation obtained from an automobile abandoned by the men may
            lead to their capture within a few hours.
              SINCUSH, 45 years old, had been informed that some men
            were attempting to rob the Audubon garage. Audubon is six
            miles from here.
              On his way to the garage, SINCUSH found the car  which
            brought the bandits to Audubon and removed the ignition
            key. Then he continued his search for the owners. He was
            alone.
              At the elevator he discovered four men were revealed
            crouching near the wall. One of them pulled a gun and
            shot twice, one bullet striking SINCUSH in the leg.
              While neighbors, aroused by the shooting, gave the con-
            stable first aid, the four men fled up an alley and
            entered another car, which belonged to L. ANDERSON of
            Arnegaard, N.D., who is visiting Audubon, and drove
            away.
