While in the beginning, it was believed one of the dead robbers was Charlie Pitts. After years of research, it has been pretty much proven that the robber that was actually killed was Sam Wells. Charlie Pitts/Sam Wells was not killed in the bank raid in Northfield, but was killed 2 weeks later at the Hanska Slough, near Madelia, MN by a posse of seven.
