The bombed shop on Clark Street
In the story · Opening (the bombing)
The film opens with a warning from Capone's men to a shop owner who refused to buy their illegal beer: a bomb goes off and a little girl is killed. That death is what brings Eliot Ness to the case. The explosion was filmed at this corner building on Clark Street, today a bar.
