	St. Valentine's Day massacre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Moran and his men would be tricked into visiting a warehouse on North Clark Street on the pretext of buying some bargain hijacked bootleg whiskey; Burke's team would then enter the building disguised as police officers and kill them.
		Moran's gang members were told to line up facing the back wall, which they apparently did willingly, believing their captors were real (and comparatively harmless) police.
		The massacre marked the end of Moran's power on the North Side, and his gang vanished into obscurity, enabling Capone to take over the area; however, the event also brought the belated and full attention of the federal government to Capone and his criminal activities.

	Bugs Moran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Moran hated Capone and verbally attacked him in the press, as well, saying "Capone is a lowlife." Moran also felt superior to Capone's gang because Capone's gang was involved in the prostitution racket, something Moran, a devout Catholic, refused to dabble in.
		Moran's remaining gambling institutions were taken over by the Outfit, led now by Frank "The Enforcer" Nitti.
		In July 1946, Moran was arrested for robbing a bank messenger in Ohio of $10,000, a paltry amount compared to Moran's lifestyle during the Prohibition days.
