THE HOODS TAKE OVER

Alan Avery is out one evening picking up medicine for his pregnant wife's migraine when he witnesses a brutal murder. Two thugs cut a guy's throat, then throw his body into their trunk and drive away. When he reports to the police exactly what he has seen, the cops are surprised to find someone who will actually stand up to the hoods in town.

His wife fears the worst, but Alan sticks by his testimony. So when Ricca and Doto are arrested and fingered by Alan, crime boss Marty Kahn springs into action, eventually getting them freed. Now the gangsters are making their own plans--and dealing with Alan is the number one priority on their list.
