A couple of French prostitutes, Louise and Vangoethan, got into a fight on Alameda Street and were brought to the police station by Officer Shannon ... Charley Robinson is the toughest Negro in the city ... and a lynching in Meridian, Miss. I seem to recall reading about Officer Michael Shannon in Harry Carr's "Los Angeles: City of Dreams."
