In the autumn of 1971, a group of men executed an audacious bank heist using a tunnel, inspired by a Sherlock Holmes story, demonstrating remarkable skill and cunning.
A significant backdrop to the robbery was the roadworks causing trembler alarms to malfunction, allowing the criminals to operate unhindered, capitalizing on the chaos for their audacious plan.
The gang's meticulous planning was showcased when one member, posing as an affluent customer, disguised their intentions by frequently visiting the bank to measure the vault with an umbrella.
Despite the police presence, there was a striking ignorance of the gang’s actions—underscoring a major blunder where police officers stood on one side of the vault while the vault was being robbers on the opposite side.
