 They were almost always drunk, got into fights, and made rash decisions, to the point where one of their members shot another.They tried to take him to the local field hospital, and all of his gang (except one who was given immunity for his testimony at their trials) alleged that he died on the way, claiming also that Pringle and the gang leader shot the man after he was dead several times so it would look like a Mafia killing.The dead gang member was discovered and police apprehended almost all the members of the Sailor Gang, along with the members of the similar, but larger, Lane Gang.
