Kid Colt Outlaw
Kid Colt has been pinned down by Sheriff Brean and his men, but the Kid manages to disarm them, telling them he doesn't shoot it out with lawmen and gets away, but Brean vows to get him.
Later that day in Copper City, gambling house owner Chainin is told about Brean's confrontation with Kid Colt and realizes that this is the ideal way to get away to get rid of the sheriff who has been trying to scuttle his gambling operations in town. To this end he has his men toss a rock through the sheriff's window that night with a phony letter from "Kid Colt" issuing the sheriff a challenge, telling him to meet at Arrow Creek. When the sheriff gets there he is gunned down by Chainin and his men, revealing themselves in the process.
Kid Colt, having also got another fake note arrives on the scene momentarily after, and learns from the sheriff what happens just before he dies. Just then Chainin and a posse arrive at the scene and Kid Colt flees the scene before they can spot him. He overhears Chainin suggesting to the posse that Kid Colt was responsible and is offering a $1000 reward to the person who brings in the Kid dead or alive. Kid Colt goes into town to confront Chainin he is ambushed by him and his men who intend to turn him into the authorities. Kid Colt struggles free and shoots them all dead, having avenged the sheriff he rides out of town.
