Apache Ambush is a 1955 American Western film directed by Fred F. Sears and starring Bill Williams, Richard Jaeckel and Alex Montoya.
The Civil War now over, President Lincoln, just hours before his assassination, selects Indian scout James Kingston to facilitate a cattle shipment from Texas to the north.
Mexican fanatic Joaquin Jironza, in cahoots with the Apaches, wants the Henry Repeating Rifles that Hank Calvin is shipping with Kingston’s convoy.
The Union Army is unable to provide Kingston an adequate escort for the cattle drive because of orders to secure the Mexican border.
Parker offers to tell Jironza where the rifles are in exchange for the protection of his father and sister, Ann; and, for assistance in disrupting the cattle drive.
