Holden–Keating Gang

The Holden–Keating Gang was a bank robbing team, led by Thomas James Holden (April 22, 1895 – December 18, 1953) and Francis Lawrence Keating (January 3, 1899 – July 25, 1978), which was active in the Midwestern United States from 1926 to 1932. Holden was described by a spokesman for the FBI as "a menace to every man, woman, and child in America" and was the first fugitive to be officially listed on the FBI's Top Ten Most Wanted List in 1950.
