$4 million in Gold Stolen in North Carolina

[UnderMiner]

A suspicious story about a truck loaded with $4 million in gold of the company Transvalue Inc.
The truck breaks down on the highway and the security guards get out to inspect it. Meanwhile a white van that had been following them pulls over. Armed men get out of the van and subdue the security guards. They then haul the $4 million in gold out of the Transvalue Inc. truck and load it into their van. The thieves get away without a trace.

I would think company policy would dictate at least one guard stay in the truck with the loot notwithstanding the circumstances--except for fire, etc.
Did someone say 'inside job?'

Only about 200 pounds.

Now I see a report that says over $4M and silver is included.

And no witnesses mentioned and neither guard injured (or worse--to avoid being ID-ed)..........give me a break !!

I would question some of these guys.

Hearing of this story and naturally just about every semi has radios, especially hauling valuables, no carrier is going to allow any non communications with dispatch if there are any problems or if dispatch sees on teh GPS that the truck has stopped without reasoning. I think it is an inside job and the drivers are invovled in it. Sounds too suspicious that niether of them called dispatch being everyone has cell phones as well!

And in a completely unrelated, and very coincidental story, my cousin Eddie and I are selling our supply of shredded gold along with our solid gold slag at 0.5% over spot. (cash only please)

The linked article says it was an armored truck and I saw no mention of stolen silver. 4 million in silver would be over 15,000 lbs unless I screwed up the math.

Do you have a link to the story that mentions silver?

Well it won't be long to figure out my speculations are correct. One or both of the guards were in on the heist!

Now reports said the driver stopped because one of the guards was not feeling well! Mechanics checked the truck out and found no issues on the truck! Imagine that!

easy enough to give someone food poisoning at one of those truck stops.... but both out as the same time and a unmarked semi..... I agree it has to have been an inside job.
