Keystone Kapers

Description:

Flash ! Harry Hooligan, a notorious con-artist, thief and all-around-not-a-nice-person, has escaped!.
He is now at large and in the vicinity of Southwick's Emperium.
At this moment, Hooligan is starting to spoil his limited freedom.

"On the scene is Keystone Kelly, pride of the men in blue.
Officer Kelly, what's it like in there ?".

"Oh, 'tis a cryin' shame ! Shenanigans like ya wouldn't believe !
Dastardly deeds that defy description !.
That rogue throwing everything within its reach.
Shopping carts, Biplanes, beachballs -everything even cathedral radios.
Look Out ! It's a cathedral radio !! Gotta go. I mean to recover the loot and bust that brute !."

"Will that double-dyed hoodlum keep Keystone in triple trouble, or will you help the great Kelly to catch Harry" ?.

Grab your truncheon, it's time to run !. It's over now, Hooligan !.
