Armored Car Robbery

Two men robbed an armored car in Alphen aan den Rijn, in the province of South Holland. After taking an unspecified amount of money, they fled on a grey scooter. The two men of between 20 and 30 years old threatened the money transport employees with a weapon when they wanted to step out of the vehicle. According to RTL.nl, the police did not report what kind of weapon or weapons the robbers used and how much money they stole. Fortunately, nobody got injured. The police found the scooter, but the criminals are still on the run.
