Interesting surveillance video clip across 4 cameras:
The guy literally stole a bucket of gold, reportedly worth $1.6 million.
Another interesting element was evidently security guards failing to follow procedure:
Then one guard leaves to make a pickup, and the other guard heads to the front seat to grab his cellphone. Those 20 seconds were long enough for the thief to strike. He goes to grab the 86-pound bucket and makes a run for it, though he clearly has difficulty maneuvering it.
Perhaps he assumed 20 seconds was not enough for anything to go wrong, but with a bucket gold in midtown Manhattan that evidently was not the right call. Wonder if the guards were fired / have liability here?
