Police Make Arrest In Fatal Daejeon Bank Heist from Over 20 Years
|It is pretty amazing that after all these years the police were able to make an arrest in regards to this bank heist:
On Dec. 21, 2001, an employee of a KB Kookmin Bank was fatally shot in the parking lot of one of its branches in Daejeon, and the two men involved took off with 300 million won ($223,000).
More than two decades later, police have arrested the suspects.
On Saturday, the Daejeon Metropolitan Police Agency said they identified the suspects using DNA samples taken from the crime scene and requested arrest warrants for two men on charges of murder and robbery.The Daejeon District Court issued arrest warrants on the same day for the two suspects, citing the risk of them fleeing or destroying evidence.
