history notes: The Little Bohemia Lodge shootout took place on the night of April 22–23, 1934, near Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin, and became one of the most infamous missteps of the early FBI. The lodge, a rustic resort owned by Emil Wanatka, was being used as a hideout by John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, and several members of Dillinger’s gang. Acting on a tip, FBI agents led by Melvin Purvis surrounded the property but bungled the raid when they mistakenly opened fire on three civilian lodge guests who were leaving in a car, killing one and wounding two. The noise alerted Dillinger’s men, who quickly armed themselves and escaped through back windows and into the woods. Dillinger himself slipped away undetected, while Nelson engaged in a running gun battle with federal agents, killing one FBI man and escaping after stealing a car. The shootout humiliated the Bureau, which faced heavy public criticism for the botched operation, and it underscored both the dangers of confronting heavily armed criminals and the FBI’s inexperience at the time. The event, however, also hardened J. Edgar Hoover’s resolve to professionalize the Bureau and pursue Dillinger relentlessly, which culminated in Dillinger’s death outside Chicago’s Biograph Theater a few months later.
