The fugitive behind one of the biggest bank robberies in Cleveland, Ohio, history has been identified as Thomas Randele, the United States Marshals Service announced Friday. Randele, who went by the fictitious name of Theodore John Conrad, died of lung cancer in May, officials said.
"The fugitive investigation into Theodore 'Ted' Conrad has perplexed many investigators over the past 50 years," the U.S. Marshals Service said in a statement.
On Friday July 11, 1969, the Ohio bank robber went to work at the Society National Bank as an ordinary bank teller. That day, the 20-year-old stole $215,000, which is the equivalent to $1.7 million today. The bank realized the money was missing from its vault the following Monday morning when Conrad failed to come to work.
Days off do not exist for Katie Ledecky. "I swim nine to ten times a week, for two hours at a time," she said. By her own estimate, Ledecky swims up to 70,000 meters – roughly 43 miles – each week, as she gears up for the Paris Olympics next month. And if that isn't enough, after hitting the pool, she hits the weights.
