Klondike and Myles O'Donnell were rivals of Al Capone in the beer racketeering era of the mid 1920s. When the O'Donnells tried to move in on Scarface's Cicero beer and gambling rackets, a team of hit men was dispatched to stop them. Capone was eating an evening meal when he sent out the team of killers. The mob boss was unaware that among the O'Donnell party was 26-year-old Illinois state attorney William McSwiggen. The young lawyer ended up as one of two men who was killed that fateful evening in 1926. Capone fled Chicago, spending the summer of '26 in Lansing, Michigan hiding out.
