Description: In the evening of October 4, 1997, a large cash haul of about $17.3 million was stolen from the Loomis Fargo & Co. vault in Charlotte, North Carolina.
It was one of the largest cash robberies in history.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t the work of criminal masterminds. The plot was quickly discovered, and the perpetrators were quickly apprehended because they made absolutely no attempt to hide their sudden newfound wealth.
