About this listen
This is the real story behind The Santa Claus Bank Robbery — one of the strangest and deadliest crimes in U.S. history.
On December 23, 1927, Marshall Ratliff walked into the First National Bank of Cisco dressed as Santa and opened fire. Within minutes, the bank was surrounded by armed civilians. What followed was chaos: a running gun battle through the streets, a hostage dragged into a getaway car, and a statewide chase ending in a shocking act of vigilante justice.
