Anyone catch the video last night on Hannity and Colmes? Pretty good video of a plan that worked. The guard got jumped when he was on foot away from the truck, he got bullwrestled over to a getaway car that backed up to meet him, the dismounted robber stripped the satchel off him and jumped in the car and they left.

The guard pulled his gun and shot three times after the car leaving, hitting about six feet in front of himself in the gravel, 12 feet and back to about nine. He then quit shooting.

Video of the whole operation from a clear angle. No weapons obvious on the robbers.

I still can't figure the reason behind that.
 
I saw it, i actually live in the same town where this happened.
Whats strange to me is this:

1.) How did the robbers know there would be 1.8 million dollars at this particular time?

2.) if you answered 1 with "they were watching the place" then why didnt they know the cameras were only feet away from them?

3.) why didnt the armored guard reach for his weapon, he didnt even raise his hands, he didnt even reach for the guys arm when it was around his neck?

4.) when the robbers were driving away, he fired 3 shots which all hit the ground....what was that?

To me, it looks like an inside job.
 
I dunno, I'd have to go with the majority that it looks like at least one guard was in one it. He just seemed to complacent when being pushed to the getaway car. The point where the car backs up and the passenger door opens is a hard angle to guage; it kind of looks like the robber is trying to force the security guard in the vehicle, but then at another glance, it appears the robber can also be helping to placing the satchel in the vehicle. What did it for me was after the robber gets in the vehicle and the security guard appears to wait until the door is closed to start firing...maybe to make sure his shots purposely didn't hit?

A little fishy to me...
 
Would the security guard have been justified in killing the robber once the robber was fleeing to or in the car?
