Bonnie and Clyde

Bonnie and Clyde were an infamous crime duo who robbed establishments and committed murders in the first half of the 1930s during the Great Depression.

Background
After his 1930–1932 term in prison, Barrows turned into a hardened criminal and formed a core of associates, which included Parker, to aid him in his small time robberies, mostly of grocery stores and gas stations. After building a reputation, the gang would occasionally rob banks.

According to Primm Slim, Bonnie and Clyde "cut a wide swath of murder and bank robbery across the central U.S." Their crime spree came to an end on May 23, 1934, when law officers ambushed the two on a rural road in Louisiana and riddled their car with substantial gunfire: an automatic rifles, shotgun, and pistol for each member of the six-man posse, all of which were emptied into the criminals and their car.

Appearances
Bonnie and Clyde are mentioned only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes
Bonnie and Clyde are based on the real life criminal duo, Bonnie and Clyde. The death car seen in the Vikki and Vance casino exists in real life, as part of a museum dedicated to the duo at Whiskey Pete's casino in Primm, Nevada.
