We turned them off but a few minutes later the cops show up out front...and I stepped out and told them it was all OK. They didn't ask for ID or anything and just went away. When I got back inside I told the crew, "That's the way to rob a building... just be sure to wear a shirt and tie and look like you work there!"

The news here wasn't very clear at first, leaving me to wonder if they'd even had a security system to guard the millions of dollars of artwork at all. I really hope they find the pieces. It would be such a shame if they were melted down for such a small amount of gold. So that’s how they did it.
