The Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre took place on February 14, 1929, hence the name. The massacre happened when several police officers approached seven members of the Bugs Moran’s North Side Gang. The officers lined the gang members up on a wall and gunned them down with Thompson submachine guns and shotguns. Despite the crimes in the 1920s, Capone was still seen as a Robin Hood to the people because he made charitable donations
