He was able to walk back to the station and inform his fellow officers. He succumbed to the wound 12 days later.
On February 22, 1899, one of the suspects was shot and killed by the postmaster in Delaware Water Gap, Pennsylvania, when he surprised the three during another attempted burglary. The other two suspects escaped.
