TAYLOR MURDER - 1966


On Oct. 29, 1966, the Springfield Fire Division emergency squad responded to 415 Ludlow Avenue for a brutal attack on a mother and her baby. 
Anita Taylor, 20, died. Her child survived.

Today, it's still a cold case.

The police division report on the slaying said: "The Fire Div. Emergency Squad, consisting of Lt. Olds and Fireman Shook, arrived at the scene and transported the complainant and baby to Community Hospital, where the complainant was pronounced D.O.A. by Dr. Fifer."
