Photos showing the final moments of Bonnie & Clyde before they were gunned down released

A new picture of an affectionate embrace between notorious robbers, Bonnie and Clyde has emerged showing the murderers shortly before they met their gruesome end.

Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow met in Texas in 1930 and are believed to have committed 13 murders and several robberies and burglaries by the time they died.

They first hit the headlines in 1932, ruthlessly robbing banks and small businesses and killing anyone who got in their way.

After evading the cops countless times, their luck ran out in 1934 when on Highway 54 in Louisiana, they were ambushed by officers who fired 107 rounds of bullets in less than two minutes.

But their infamy and legend live on to this day in the unseen images that document the end for Bonnie and Clyde, who died aged 24 and 23, along with other memorable moments.

The duo became infamous as they traveled across America's Midwest and South, holding up banks and stores with other gang members.

And a never-before-developed photograph has emerged showing them kissing in Missouri shortly before they were brutally gunned down in an ambush.

The picture of the gangsters' embrace was taken in Joplin shortly before their pursuers got wind of their whereabouts and they had to flee quickly.

 

According to the SUN, the public were enamoured by the love-struck pair, full names Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Chestnut Barrow, during the great depression in America.

Images include their bullet-riddled car, the couple’s bloody bodies on the gurney after each being struck by 50 bullets, the arresting officers and a previously undeveloped picture of the couple smooching.

Along with a copy of Clyde’s criminal record detailing robberies, murder and more; his fingerprints, and the warning: “this man is very dangerous and extreme care should be taken when arresting him.”
