This Western is set in the Arizona town and centers on former gunslinger Wyatt Earp who has been recently deputized and is helping the sheriff round up all the criminals. Earp becomes a lawman after he sees an outlaw accidentally kill a child during a showdown. Earp's brothers and Doc Holliday help him take on the outlaw and his gang. More trouble ensues when the sheriff is involved with the gang. Earp manages to get them on robbery charges and the situation finally culminates at the infamous O.K. Corral.
