Gambling, the local wire service, drug distribution, bootlegging, certain trade unions, as well as the extortion rackets were all operated by the Purple Gang. The year was 1927 and the Purple Gang was on top of their game running Detroit's underworld. When Three Chicago gunmen by the names of Joseph “Nigger Joe” Lebowitz, Herman “Hymie” Paul, and Isadore “Izzy the Rat” Sutker, fled to Detroit, the Purple Gang’s status was put to the test. The men shook down Chicago speakeasy operators for protection money. What the three men didn’t know was that the victims were under Al Capone's syndicate for purchasing liquor from his suppliers. After finding out about this Capone gave the men an ultimatum. They could either leave Chicago willingly or in a box. Willingly the men fled to Detroit. After arriving in the city the men soon became affiliated with a smaller faction of the Purple Gang called the “Little Jewish Navy”. They would use member owned speedboats to run liquor from Canada to Detroit. Trust would soon be lost between the men and the Purple Gang. Lebowitz, Paul, and Sutker hijacked members of the gang and preyed on other local gang members disregarding their territories. Trying to establish themselves as an independent power, they became known as the “Third Avenue Terrors”. Trying to take over Detroit’s underworld mainly controlled by the Purple Gang was going to be a hard task and one that the Gang was not going to let happen easily.
