OK, the police want to know where you were Easter Sunday
$30 million stolen from a money storage facility in Sylmar, a suburban neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley.
So, where were you… https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/04/us/la-bank-heist-money-storage-facility/index.html Edited location for Zeke and Speeder! Last edited by A930Rocket; 04-05-2024 at 01:24 PM.. |

If the thieves are smart they'll either sit on it for a long time or, buy a boat big enough to get them to Mexican waters then hire a plane to who knows where.

That much cash from dispensary pot sales? If so, makes you wonder if it was inside job. Money disappears, and a large taxable gain becomes a loss?

 I did not even know that there was such a thing as a *cash storage facility* until this happened.

Dollars to donuts, it was Armenians. And I say that with all due respect.

Right down the road from me. I guess the internet was knocked out for most of the day in the area. You would think there would be some kind of backup security plan in place.

I'm guessing it's an inside job. The cops will be watching suspects like a hawk and there will be a bust soon. Squealing to follow

You have to realize that they were stealing their own money, they own all of the dispensaries in the valley and therefore know all about this place. They probably planned it over countless hookah sessions at one of the popular lounges, with the employees they had befriended dropping off their cash every day. We’ll revisit this thread when the arrests come and see how accurate I was.
