Season 4 Episode 6: In Arizona, a shipment of money vanished without a trace, along with the two men hired to guard it. Agents didn't know if the guards were willing participants or victims of an ambush. When the vehicle was recovered -- but with hundreds of thousands of dollars and the drivers missing - suspicions grew that the crime was an inside job.
Season 6 Episode 7: A bank vault was blasted into from the ceiling, and over $2 million in valuables was missing. Agents were able to track down one of the robbers' friends and attempted to use him as bait to reel in the crooks.
Dangerous Gamble: In Henderson, NV, a suburb of Las Vegas, two robbers brandishing assault rifles ambush armored guards as they exit their truck on March 3, 2000. The robbers kill both guards and seize $5,000. As the killers run to their getaway car, a police officer arrives and opens fire, striking one escaping assailant in the leg. After loosing the killers in a chase, police collect blood left by the injured robber and bullet casings from the firefight. Las Vegas Police and the FBI notice similarities to brazen midday robberies at the MGM Grand casino, the Desert Inn casino and the Mandalay Bay casino. The FBI developed a list of suspects after the September 20, 1998 MGM Grand robbery.
Season 7 Episode 15: FBI agents and local police track a gang of robbers who specialize in armored car take-downs. As the robberies grow more violent, agents launch a complex sting to trap a deadly ring of thieves and shut down their dangerous operation.

This is a really high quality programme, way better than any crime shows we have today. It goes to show how much programmes have deteriorated these days

Imagine getting caught because you forgot to turn on a dishwasher 😂

I like these documentaries. It would be great to see an episode about crimes committed by the FBI!

So sad about the Guards . This is the most compelling true crime show. These stories are intense..

Honestly I miss this older analog video era of television. It's got a specific kind of charm about it.
-
Biggest Heist?!?! What about the 3 trillion missing dollars from the Pentagon? Why no show on that?

Once a Marine, always a Marine, a Marine, never says former Marine .

You had one job... And you still didn't push the button on the dishwasher! Think about how that story went over in prison! 😆

Remember, kids, this occurred in a time well before cell phones and GPS

That bank heist was something off a movie. Matter of fact , it was a movie where they went in from the bottom or top. I can’t remember but wow, is all I can say.. It was way to many people in on it. I can’t get over how fast the guy told on himself and accomplices .They didn’t even have to keep on him before he gave it up. The FBI so happened to confront the weakest person of the 7. All the FBI agent had to say was he too was in the Marines and it was downhill after that .

So sad about the Guards 😢
-
The subtitles in the Boston Episode are priceless. Love that Dirty Water
-
Love how the narrator leaves gaps for the acting but the actors clearly haven't been given a script
-
Every time I see this video's thumbnail image, what first comes to mind is "Lori Lightfoot (Chicago mayor) robbing a bank".
-
A guy I used to spar with and frequented my gym got 50 to life for armored truck robberies. I never would have known. He was such a nice guy. I just wished I knew what he was up to so I could have talked him out of doing it.
-
Fantastic investigators well done
-
Great job guys all the way around
