Crime: Helicopter Used in Swedish Cash Depot Raid

Filed under: Crime,Sweden — Tags: , , , — Matt @ 7:44 AM

   Thanks to Doug for sending me this.  I think what is interesting about this, is the complexity of the operation.  These are not amateurs, and reading through the little details on this thing, you can’t help but to be impressed.  The question I have, and Doug alluded to this as well, is if this is a state sponsored crime or what?  Is this the act of a state sponsored cell, a terrorist cell, or just some really organized criminal gang?.  What do they plan on doing with the cash, if this is part of  a larger plot?

   One more comment on this.  These criminals were operating within the police and bank’s OODA loop, and defeated them.  With the helicopter, they were able to accelerate the movements and maximize observational capability.  The bag with ‘bomb’ written on it, is what threw the police off operationally, and bought the criminals some time.  That is what is interesting to me about this whole thing. –Matt
