Details of The Old Main Post Office Robbery
The target of this robbery was the daily transport of cash from local retail bank branches to the banking HQs in Copenhagen. The cash was transported by the national postal service as detailed below, and the gang targeted the only stretch in which the total amount would be transported by car before being divided up for distribution to the individual bank HQs. Planning and stakeouts for the robbery began more than one year before the heist, in the fall of 1987.
