Police revealed on Wednesday that a staggering $30 million was stolen in a daring Easter Sunday burglary at a money storage facility in Los Angeles. This audacious heist ranks among the biggest cash thefts ever witnessed in the city.
According to LA Police Department Commander Elaine Morales, a burglary took place on Sunday night at an undisclosed facility in the Sylmar area of the San Fernando Valley.

According to sources, the burglars gained entry through the roof, although it remains uncertain how they managed to bypass the alarm system. The business operators, whose identities were not disclosed by the police, only became aware of the extensive theft when they unlocked the vault on Monday.
According to the Times, the break-in was one of the biggest cash burglaries in Los Angeles history, surpassing any previous armored-car heist in the city. According to the AP, the theft occurred approximately two years after a significant amount of jewels and other valuable items were stolen from a Brink's truck at a truck stop in Southern California. The culprits remain at large.
