Harry Hyter was a gangland sort dating back to at least the early 1920s when he was involved with a bootleg gang operating out of Gary, Indiana. His record also consisted of a handful of arrests for robbery. By the early Thirties he was known as a “hanger-on” of the Capone gang and was a pal of
ranking Capone gunman, Sam Hunt.

On this date back in 1931, somebody(ies), for some reason, fired bullets into Hyter’s head and chest. His body
was then driven out to an area called “Jaranowski’s woods” and dumped. While
searching his body, police found a number of cards listing amounts of gallons
so figured that Hyter was still actively engaged in bootlegging.
