$30 Million of Gold Stolen in Brazil - Oni - 07-27-2019
A group of criminals disguised as federal police managed to make off with $30 million in gold. Happened at Sao Paulo airport. Sounds like something out of a video game.
Quote:It took less than three minutes for eight armed men to make off with $30 million worth of gold bars from Sao Paulo’s international airport -- possibly the second-largest heist in Brazil’s history.
Criminals disguised as federal police officers drove to the Guarulhos airport on Thursday afternoon in an SUV and flatbed truck, both fashioned to look official, according to the airport’s press office. Security camera footage shows them wearing balaclavas and giving orders to cargo terminal employees, one of whom used a forklift to load the precious cargo onto the truck’s bed.

I didn't know Lester was still planning heists. I can't believe minor things like that still manage to slip through cracks nowadays. Banks should be a lot more aware.

You'd think that strict authentication measures would've been In place.
