"Tong-war in Chinatown! A drama of the Oriental fury that knows no bounds!"
Captured in Chinatown is a crime mystery film directed by Elmer Clifton. Ann parker and Bob Martin, who are reporters for the daily chronicle, unexpectedly get drawn into a conflict when they attend a wedding ceremony in Chinatown. The ceremony was supposed to bring to an end the enmity between two rival gangs in Chinatown but after a necklace meant to be a wedding-present disappears, the dispute starts afresh. A policeman by the name Tarzan is then charged with the responsibility of solving the mystery with the hope that it would consequently end the feud between the two rival gangs.
