How did he know where to go and that money was in the safe? Sounds like an inside job requiring inside investigation leading up to him knowing exactly where to go.
I don’t believe that man acted on his own. Some kind of help from the inside looks possible. The police should start looking there.
Inside job to know the money was there
That’s a inside job……..
The bandit spoke with an Antiguan accent
no sorry it was a Guyanese accent, he stole the money as he sneeze- I catch you
