On the morning of February 21, 1925, Miss Elizabeth Kreitner and Mr. Ben Kral opened the Millburg State Bank, prepared for what they thought would be a routine Saturday. However, their first    customers were anything but ordinary. Dressed in trench coats and armed with a revolver, two men forced the tellers into the back closet and looted the bank. While the robbery only lasted a few   minutes, the subsequent car chase, manhunt, and trial would long be remembered as one of Southwest Michigan's most dramatic crimes of the 1920s.

Join the North Berrien Historical Museum as NBHM Director of Programs, Katie St. Amand, retells “The Millburg Bank Robbery” in all of its exciting detail as its 100 year anniversary approaches.
