Interesting Austrian report that narrates the legend created after the life of Dalilah Saslavsky (alias Diana Salas) an Austrian/American (although some records claim she was Austrian/Argentine) gunwoman known as "Pepita la Pistolera" or "La Diabla Roja", because of her long red hair. In the early 1920s she led a band of armed riders that disseminated death and fear along the U.S. Mexican Border. A post modern comic version of the story has been developed by Andrea Parr.
