It seems that the amount stolen from the Mondialpol Vedetta 2 on Friday evening by an armed commando in via Caniga in Sassari should be revised downwards . Very far from the 20 million initially hypothesized , given that the bandits only appropriated the sums being processed in the counting room , the place where the money is counted and is found in much smaller quantities than in the vault, which remained unconquered .
The coldness of the lookout in the sentry box was providential, as despite the hail of bullets he had enough cold blood to raise the alarm in order to activate the safety procedures that allowed the vault to be armored and the employees safe.
Yesterday the discovery of the Fiat Ducato "cabriolet" , modified by removing the roof to facilitate the unloading of banknotes. One wonders why the bandits got rid of them so late.
And the origin of the weapons is being investigated: Eastern Europe, a crossroads of trafficking in weapons of war, or the dark web where everything is found. In addition to Kalashnikovs , the bandits also used pistols : either 9 x 21 caliber Glocks, also supplied to the police, or 9 mm Parabellum, among the most widespread.
