Synopsis

When Mike Sturges and his younger brother Roy learn that their herd of prized horses has been stolen, they trail the rustlers to an old railroad station, but that night they are attacked by the thieves led by Mayner. The next morning Roy and Mike are arrested for the train robbery of a gold shipment actually committed by Mayner and his gang. Mike and Roy are imprisoned, and Roy dies as a result of prison brutality. Mike escapes, hoping to avenge himself against the thieves and clear his name. He goes to Yuma City and is befriended by a prostitute. Though prison guards and Mexican bounty hunters pursue him, Mike finds the stolen gold and waits there for Mayner. Mike singlehandedly kills the entire band in a violent battle, delivers the gold to the authorities, and is absolved of any wrongdoing.
