Apart from the cheesy voiceover, this is a really good noir that was the inspiration for the TV and Radio series, "Dragnet".

Another great docu-drama/film noir starring Richard Baseheart, HE WALKED BY NIGHT is a solid flick with excellent cinematography and mise-en-scene. The film incorporates standard film noir themes of desperation and the nature of evil, and is just one of many to explore the concept of the mythical "perfect crime." The manhunt that unfolds is one of the most brilliant I've seen, concluding with a shootout in the LA sewer system.

Worth it to me for the bullet extraction scene and the sewer tunnel chase.

Before Dragnet and CSI, this 1948 crime thriller set the bar very high. Richard Basehart

The main quality of the movie is shown in its detailed and very insightful look on the works of a police force, while they're trying to build up a case against one of the most intelligent criminals in the city of Los Angeles. Even though it sometimes puts too much emphasis on the side of police authorities, its main purpose is also to be a semi-documentary about a group of policemen trying to figure out who killed one of their own. The same person seems to be involved in a series of burglaries, and is known for changing his modus operandi. Some of the scenes, like the one when the killer is trying to get the bullet out of his body, or when he is anxiously awaiting the arrival of law enforcement and his dog is barking louder and louder, are surely able to combine for a very uncomfortable and sombre mood of this noir piece. A B-grade noir that won't let anyone down.
