Walter Sharpe - for a robbery/murder.
At 10 a.m. on Wednesday the 16th of November 1949, two youths entered “Albion Watch Depot” a small jeweler’s shop at 132 Albion Street, Leeds, owned 49 year old Abraham Harry Levine.
They demanded all the money he had in the shop but Abraham declined to give it to them and grabbed Walter Sharpe and tussled with him until the other lad hit Abraham over the head with the butt of a 38 calibre Colt revolver. Abraham still wouldn’t let go until he was shot twice. The pair then ran out into the street, empty handed, scattering passers by with shots into the air.
Abraham also staggered into the street where he collapsed. He was taken to Leeds Royal Infirmary and was able to give a statement to police together with a description of his attackers. Sadly, he died the following day, so the case escalated to a murder.
