On December 2, 1912, the NYT ran this headline: “Negress Kills White Girl. Deserted Wife of Ragtime Dancer Shoots Her Successful Rival.” This crime took place in London.
Mrs. Gross was described as “an American negress of gigantic size – 6 feet 2 inches in height and proportionately muscular.”
Her estranged husband Jake (the aforementioned “ragtime dancer”) was shacked up with Jessie McIntyre, a “pretty young actress.”
Early one Sunday morning, after a late-night party, young Miss McIntyre was surprised to see Annie Gross spring out of her bedroom, holding a revolver. The white girl was shot on the staircase, one bullet striking her in the head, killing her instantly.
When Jake Gross went to check out the commotion, Annie pointed the gun at him and pulled the trigger. But she was out of bullets.
“The negress then fled into the street shrieking, and was captured after a short chase,” the Times reported.
TLDR; Tyrone leaves his 6'2 Shaniqua wife for a white foid in 1912 London. Shaniqua gets jealous and shoots the white girl.
