Movie where rookie newspaper reporter captures bank robbery by accident

[Bulldogshooter]

This old classic I saw around 1967, where a rookie newspaper reporter/photographer accidently captures a bank robbery, bribes the gangsters into funding his love for photography, Otherwise he will turn them in. Only to be shot at the end of the movie at a formal gala. While standing on top of a hall's stairway he pulls the old fashion camera's string to capture the murder's photograph.

 

I do remember the gangsters office/hideaway being a bowling alley. He also hide the negatives in the back of his girlfriends picture.

 

Great movie!! I now love photography and wish to find the name of that movie.....help me!!

Just like in the movies. In my city this week, there's a psychopathic killer on the loose--gunned down his cheating girlfriend, stole a car, and 'headed this way'. Robbing grocery stores along the way. Residents advised to stay indoors until the maniac is apprehended. No kidding!
