Posted by: admin , December 26, 2014
  • Approximately $HK15.3  million ($AU2.4 million) spilled out of an armoured van in Hong Kong sparking a cash grab frenzy among motorists and passers-by.
  • TV footage shows people walking on to the highway and grabbing cash.
  • Police rushed to the scene, some armed with shotguns – later warning that those who collected cash should return it, otherwise they will be committing the ‘crime of theft’.
  • It’s reported that the security van reached its destination, but that the driver was oblivious to the fact that the back door was open and that boxes had fallen out.
