Just for the record, when Dillinger was shot to death by FBI agents outside the Biograph Theatre in Chicago, the city was experiencing one of the worst heat waves on record, which is why Dillinger, prostitute/madam Anna Sage (not her real name), and Polly Hamilton, one of Sage's call girls, were in the Biograph in the first place - it was one of the very few theatres in the city with air conditioning. Dillinger wore no jacket of any kind, carried no sawed-off Parker shotgun under it, nor displayed a M1911 Colt pistol stuck in his belt. When he attempted to withdraw the small pistol he carried in his pants pockets at all times, agents opened fire and he was struck multiple times. He died at the scene.
