Did you know....Orange has a history from the Wild West?
​
"On the night of March 3, 1880 six masked bandits accosted eight to ten persons at gunpoint and tied them up while robbing them, including a Mrs. Marian Crowder of Crowder's Store, then located at the Northeast corner of the Plaza in Orange (where Citizen's Business Bank is today). The bandits made off with valuables and $276.15 in cash, and warned Mrs. Crowder to wait 15 minutes before untying the prisoners, to allow an escape. Some of the bandits were later imprisoned at San Quentin."
