(AP. by Guardian's Special Wire) NEW YORK, April 5 -— Police closed off the city in a tremend- ous man-hunt tonight as they flatly announced they had solved at last.tl'.e bizarre triple slaying Easter Sunday morning on Beck- man Hill. Officers announced they sought Robert Irwin, 29-year-old sculptor, and former divinity student at St. Lawrence University. He was rc- leased last summer after three years of mental treatment at the Rockland County Hospital. Like a bombshell in the midst of one of the greatest murder mysteries the metropolis ever has known exploded the statement to- day of Chief Deputy Police In- spector John A. Lyons: "We are definitely hunting Rob- ert Irwfn for the triple murders of Veronica Gedeon, her mother and Frank Byrnes,thelr boarder. There has been no doubt in our minds since last Wednesday that he com- mltted the crime." Revenge, officials said. was the WJUVB. TEVHIEB against "Ronnie" and her mother Mary for oppos- ing his love for the elder daugh- ter of the family. Ethel, now mar- ried to George Knudner and ‘iv- ina in long Island City. "We never would have sent out an eight-state alarm if we had not amassed sufilcient evidence to con- vict Irwin of first degree murder,” said a high police official. With this statement went the last. question of suspicion against 54-year-old Joseph Gcdeon. the estranged father who was ques- tioned two successive days by pol- ice. Gedeon was bound over in felony court until May 5 on a charge of illegally possessing a firearm. Gone. mo, was the importance of the mysterious "millionaire from Boston." of the phantom "mun in the hall." of the former husband of the model. of her many friends and admirers among illustrators and artists.
