Even wearing vests.
Nothing like training and prep to make sure things go according to plan.
Wonder if these crooks have military training.
Get the feeling these guys will not be caught anytime soon unless one has a vindictive girlfriend.

The guy at the gate appear to have had some sort of military training. Well planed and carried out. I would not be surprised if all members of the group are current military or PN members. Or perhaps even dishonorably discharged members???

Look at 47 seconds into the video. I'm sure he goes to the guy in the camioneta parked out front and asks him for a sweet. He points his gun in the window, then takes something and puts it in his mouth. Doesn't he?

Every single heist like this planned/ executed the last ten years has involved the PN or Military (current and former) do give them a couple of days and they will make the announcement in the press.

There was a robbery in a Colmado as well and the assailents didn't bother to wear hats OR masks, and the colmado had excellent video recording equipment. If I saw one in the street I'd recognize him. That's chutzpa.

Yes I saw this an acquaintance sent me the video on WhatsApp. The first thing to cross my mind was: the 'cocos' on these fools to not even ware a surgical mask. I don't think it's chutzpa, it's more like stupidity. Perhaps a bit of both?
