Robbers steal €6.5m at Customs office

German investigators said on Wednesday that they have launched a manhunt for three suspects who made away with 6.5 million euros ($7.6 million) in cash after breaking into a Customs office.

“The break-in was professionally planned and carried out: three as yet unidentified perpetrators used a drill to get to the vault from an adjoining room in the cellar of the building,” said police in a statement on the heist in the western city of Duisburg.
