Heist: The True Story of Lightning Lee Murray and the World's Biggest Cash Robbery
Description
A detail-driven account of how a small-time gang pulled off the daring 2006 Securitas depot robbery, from the bestselling true crime author of Fred & Rose. A counting house for the Bank of England, the cash depot in Tonbridge was located within a triangle of three twenty-four-hour police stations, one only three hundred yards away. But it was also close to the sports center where local MMA fighters Lea Rusha and Jetmir Bucpapa sometimes trained. A petty criminal with convictions for grievous bodily harm, shoplifting, and stealing, Rusha believed the anonymous building was the key to his dreams of hitting it big. Teaming up with a crew consisting of a South London cage-fighting star, used car dealers, and a burly builder, among others, Rusha and Bucpapa installed one of their own on the inside as a cash administrator. Helped out by lax security practices, they proceeded to kidnap a worker and abscond with almost £53 million in an Ocean's Eleven-style burglary. Heist is the compelling true story of this mind-blowing crime, from the seventy-five minutes that made each robber a multi-millionaire to the trials that put the suspects front and center in the theft that broke worldwide records in cash taken-and pure audacity. The subject of Catching Lightning, as seen on SHOWTIME.
