Dragnet was created, produced, and hosted by Jack Webb, who played the key character in the series, Sgt. Joe Friday. The Red Light Bandit features the story of a released convict who dons a police uniform and terrorizes the city. In The City Hall Bomber, the brother of a condemned man threatens to blow up City hall if his brother isn't released immediately.
