Federal Prohibition Agent Charles Alexander suffered a fatal heart attack while raiding a still in Williamstown, North Carolina.
He was accompanying other agents through the woods on the way to the still when he became ill. He told the other agents he was going to return to the car and wait for them. When the other agents got back to the car an hour later Agent Alexander was missing.
A search of the nearby area located Agent Alexander's body in a nearby field. It was determined that he had suffered a fatal heart attack.
