HE ■ Vampire-Man Unmoved ■ By His Terrible Crimes ■ (By Carl D. .Groat) K (U. p. Staff Correspondent) ■9 Berlin, Sept. 10—Unmoed at the en--9 ormity of his crimes. Herr Haarmann. ■■ Hannover's ‘'vampire murderer,” has H chnfesed to killing 14 youths, durnpH ing their bones into the Leine River,' ■ and proceeding to hunt even more victims. H The police, whose stool pigeon he H was. charge now that he killed at least ■ 22. but Haarmann sitting in solitary ■ confinement in the town jail of Hin-J H denhurg's hometown, swears it “was S only 14.’” Beyond that, lie will not go.* B He refuses details of his operations B ami of the strange bloodlust that causB ed him to lure youths to his den in B the shadow of police headquarter* at ■ M Hanover and there slaughter them by M tearing upon their throats, vamplreM like, and sucking their blood. ■ Nor will he tell the police anything ■ to help them clear up the mystery of ■ how he succeeded in a period of three ■ years to slaughter so many victims ■ without ever being suspected of such I gross crimes. The police now recall I that he had been held previously be- ■ cause some of his male acquaintances I disappeared mysteriously, but they were unable to pin anything onto him. And it was only a short time ago that the Leine began giving up its dead, which finally opened the eyes of the police about their stool pigeon Haarmann. Sold Flesh as Meat They swooped down on his den, used as an old clothes shop and meat market and found some indication.) of his murderous pursuits; likewise l made the revolting discovery that] Haarmann, like the famous Berlin' butcher-murderer, Grossmann, may I have sold some of his victims’ flesh' as meat. Further digging brought to light the character of Haanmann’s activities. The Leine was drained and yielded up' many bags of incriminating bones—' mute evidence of Haarmann's murderous lust. The police then unraveled a bit of the complicated story. Haarman and an accomplice lured youths to the den. w*th promises of money, sometimes also, telling them that they could be entertained by his mythical “beautiful 14-year-old daughter.” Worked Railroad Station Haarmann operated chiefly around ne Hannover railroad station. I He had a false police document permitting him entrance to the building all hours of the day and night. Here found unemployed youth s who had homes, and besought them to share his quarters.
