Kansas City Confidential

When an armored car robbery goes down and the four robbers get away clean with 1.2 million in cash, a decorated and down on his luck veteran named Joe Rolfe (John Payne) is accused of being involved and is mercilessly beaten up by the local police. Released due to lack of evidence, Joe decides to look for the men who set him up and then pay them back one by one. What he doesn't suspect, however, is that the trail will lead to beautiful Coleen Gray, an innocent bystander, and Preston Foster, a corrupt cop, who will in the end decide who lives, who dies and who ends up with the money.
