Plot

A young dockworker named Dan McLeod (Kenneth MacDonald) is accused of a robbery at his job on the loading dock that was actually committed by his foreman Tony Garcia (Boris Karloff). Dan escapes from the police and a comical detective named Sherlock Jones (Eddie Harris) sets out to track him down and recapture him. Dan gets a job as a gym teacher at his girlfriend Helen's school, but gets fired soon after. Next he becomes a professional boxer and calls himself Dynamite Dan. Dan asks his girlfriend to spy for him at his old job and learn who it was that framed him for the robbery. In the film's finale, Dan has to box a gangster named Brute Lacy (Harry Woods) in the ring for the championship as his girlfriend is being menaced by gangster Tony Garcia.
