BREAKING NEWS – Chicago, Illinois – In November 1915 a diver named William Deneau discovered what he claimed was a lost submarine on the bottom of the Chicago River. Hauled out of the water in December, the vessel was put on display on State Street in January 1916, then appeared with a carnival in Iowa that spring. Historians now believe that the submarine was owned by Al Capone, using it to transport liquor during prohibition, selling large quantities to local fisherman, and to mermaids that were also alcoholics.
