$4.8M in gold bars stolen in armored truck heist on highway

Shortly after dusk along a lonely stretch of Interstate 95, armed robbers hijacked an armored truck, tied up the two guards and disappeared into the night with 275 pounds of gold bars.

Maybe because the guards didn't want to get in a shoot out over someone else's money.... DUH

Somebody knew that gold was in transit.. You don't just plan a random heist expecting a couple hundred grans and it just so happen to be filled with 4 MILLION IN GOLD. Too much of a coincidence.

Let me guess no gold or robbers ever found. Hats off to a successful heist and thieves never having to work another day in their lives

[stony]

well done for every one involved inside job for sure lol

[jimmybadazz]

They want somebody to rat for 56 thousand ctfu and the pot is 4 mil lol I hope they never catch them

Just so no one gets any ideas, marked armoured cars that carry cash and coin owned by Loomis, Brinks, Garda and Dunbar, NEVER carry gold, silver, jewels, diamonds and paintings. Untraceable valuables are always carried by unmarked semi trucks operated by different companies.

Device placed on engine to remotely stop from running. Robbers see truck, hit switch, truck shuts down . Simple.

Lester is not scared. He will pay the cops

Love it! It's kinda a sense of satisfaction to see this. It's like they kinda fulfilled a dream of mine to possess such a fortune.

They were just filming the next Fast and Furious scene, nothing to worry about people.

Your handgun vs their high powered rifles. Who do you think would win?

Inside job. Someone at shipper, or trucking company, or broker, or at Qualcomm was involved. But it was preplanned so Qualcomm is out of the question.

Adrenaline gave the robbers the power to move quickly.

Sounds like the classic "inside side job"

[MrMustangMan]

one 27 lb gold bar is worth ~$707, 000 [7 gold bars = 4.8 mil]

The big bank heist in GTA v in real life.

[michaelt.]

You only want to pay $50k for us to turn in $4mil? Gtfo

[RiasLight]

Just because they have guns doesn't mean they are willing to hurt or kill someone lmao

[josephgruber]

Man what a rush I wished I'd a been there

[timsmith]
