Description
[5 N.Y.2d 75 Page 79] Plaintiff's intestate supplied information to the Police Department of the City of New York leading to the arrest of a dangerous
fugitive from justice known as Willie Sutton, a criminal of national reputation. Schuster's part in Sutton's capture was widely
publicized. Schuster immediately received communications threatening his life, of which he notified the police. Three weeks
later Schuster was shot and killed while approaching his home in the evening. There is no suggestion that Schuster was an
underworld character. On the contrary, he appears to have been a public spirited young man who had studied Sutton's picture
on an FBI flyer that had been posted in his father's dry-goods store, asking for Sutton's whereabouts.
