The armored cars were totally destroyed, because the authors used explosives to break into the back of the trucks. The authors fled in a pickup truck and a passenger car. Also, according to information, all wore black clothing and were very well trained. The amount taken by the robbers was not yet disclosed. Assaults on armored cars in this region have turned routine. An air staff of the Military Police was triggered, but until press time no one had been arrested. The three victims had not been identified.
