Synopsis
"Bull" Savage, leader of a gang of silk thieves, lures police officer Danny Malone away from his post outside a silk warehouse by tricking him into thinking that his estranged brother, Dick Malone, another member of the gang (but not a hardened criminal), is in danger. The chief inspector, upon finding Danny away from his post after the crime has been committed, suspects him of complicity. Danny's reluctance to mention his long-lost brother costs him his job. Wells, a newspaper reporter, believing Danny (now working as a truckdriver) to be innocent, assists him in capturing the silk thieves the next time they stage a holdup.
