The Biggest Robbery In Irish History?
The Biggest Robbery In Irish History?
That is how the Guardian headlined the story below, in my GMail RSS reader:
Robbers snatch record €7m from Dublin bank
Irish gangsters have staged the biggest cash robbery in the history of the Republic, stealing up to €7 million from the Bank of Ireland in Dublin's College Green early today.
The Garda Siochana said an armed gang took the family of a Bank of Ireland worker hostage at their County Kildare home on Thursday night.
The gang forced their way into the home at Kilteel and seized the worker's partner, her mother and a seven-year-old child. The man's partner was beaten before the family were taken away in their car.
(Notice they said 'cash robbery')
