Caught on Cam | Thief steals pot of gold

New York Police release video of a man they say lifted a bucket filled with $1.6 million (USD) of gold flakes from an armored truck. The suspect was lingering near the truck and took advantage of a moment of distraction by its security guards to snatch the 19-litre bucket. The video shows him walking away with some difficulty, likely due to the weight of the bucket. The theft happened on a busy stretch of 48th Street in the borough of Manhattan, near the Rockefeller Center office and shopping complex, police said. Police, who said they believe the man has since fled to Florida, described him as 50 to 60 years old, Hispanic and wearing a black vest and green shirt.
