Bill Doolin

William "Bill" Doolin (1858–August 1896) was an American bandit and founder of the Wild Bunch, an outlaw gang that specialized in robbing banks, trains and stagecoaches in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas during the 1890s. Doolin, born near Clarksville, Arkansas, was originally a member of the Dalton Gang, until forming his own in 1893. The Wild Bunch were the most powerful outlaw group in the West until Doolin was captured in a Eureka Springs bathhouse in early 1896; Doolin escaped on July 5 of that year, but was killed in an ambush in the next month.
