Richard James Hart (born Vincenzo Capone; March 28, 1892 in Angri, Italy[1] – October 1, 1952) was the oldest brother of infamous Chicago gangster, Al Capone. Capone left home at age 16 and moved from Brooklyn to Nebraska, ostensibly to join a circus. He worked to lose his Brooklyn accent and tried to disguise his Italian ancestry as well. He enlisted in the United States Army in World War I, served in France, and earned a commission as a lieutenant.[2] After the war, Capone legally changed his name to Richard James Hart, partly in honor of his favorite cowboy film star, William S. Hart. He married in 1919 and soon became a federal Prohibition agent, making his home in Homer, Nebraska. Following a series of successful raids against bootleggers, he gained the nickname of "Two-gun" Hart. In the early 1950s, newspaper reporters learned of his kinship to the Chicago gangster.[3] In 1926, Hart became a special agent of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. He was assigned to the Cheyenne River Indian reservation in South Dakota. While there he once had the duty of protecting President Calvin Coolidge and his family on their visit to the Black Hills.[3] He was later transferred to the Spokane Indian Reservation in Washington. He was credited with the arrest of at least 20 wanted killers while in that area, besides pursuing Indian law breakers and hunting down moonshine stills. He spent some time as a law enforcement officer on the Coeur d'Alene Reservation in Plummer, Idaho.[2] Hart returned to Homer as a Prohibition agent in 1931. With the repeal of Prohibition two years later, he became a justice of the peace. He died in Homer, Nebraska, in 1952 of a heart attack at the age of 60.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.letrescimmiette.info/curiosita-domande-e-stranezze-ad-angri/item/853-angri-le-origini-angresi-di-al-capone.html|title=Al Capone, il gangster americano piu' famoso del mondo era di origini angresi|first=Super|last=User|publisher=}} 2. ^1 http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/gangsters_outlaws/mob_bosses/capone/hart_10.html {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121010212233/http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/gangsters_outlaws/mob_bosses/capone/hart_10.html |date=October 10, 2012 }} 3. ^1 {{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8K_gDAAAQBAJ&pg=PA102&dq=Coolidge+bodyguard+The+Big+Con:+Great+Hoaxes,+Frauds,+Grifts,+and+Swindles+in+American+History&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjE5_mzhqbbAhVcBjQIHS77AkwQ6AEIKTAA#v=onepage&q=Coolidge%20bodyguard%20The%20Big%20Con:%20Great%20Hoaxes,%20Frauds,%20Grifts,%20and%20Swindles%20in%20American%20History&f=false|title=The Big Con: Great Hoaxes, Frauds, Grifts, and Swindles in American History: Great Hoaxes, Frauds, Grifts, and Swindles in American History|last=Hendley|first=Nate|date=2016-09-06|publisher=ABC-CLIO|isbn=9781610695862|language=en}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Hart&GSfn=Richard&GSby=1892&GSbyrel=in&GSdy=1952&GSdyrel=in&GSob=n&GRid=66613217&df=all&|title=Richard James Hart (1892 - 1952) - Find A Grave Memorial|publisher=}} External links
