Three masked, armed men rob cash from Denver armored truck
Denver CO Nov 2 2019 Three armed and masked men robbed an armored truck Wednesday afternoon in Greenwood Village startling a security guard, ordering the victim to the ground with a weapon to her head as the truck was ransacked.
The three robbers then quickly fled in an SUV.
The frightening, lightning-quick robbery happened at about 2:30 p.m. in a parking lot at the Bank of Colorado, 5201 S. Yosemite St., according to the FBI.
The robbers wore black or blue hoodies, masks and sunglasses. Two were armed with semi-automatic handguns, and one brandished an AK-47 variant, the FBI said.
The robbers fled in a 2013 to 2016 gray Nissan Pathfinder, which had a stolen Colorado license plate CVD-251.
Surveillance footage of the crime shows a robber appearing to strip a gun from the guard before taking off.
Conviction of armored vehicle robbery carries up to a 20-year prison sentence, which increases if a weapon is used, the FBI said.
