Police in Bucks County are searching for two suspects who they say drove to the back of a business, shattered an employee’s car window, and took duffle bags full of money.
Sources tell Action News the cash in those bags totaled well over a million dollars.
“That’s really alarming,” said Lynette Thomas from Morrisville.
“I can’t believe it,” added John Whalen from Morrisville.
It happened at Prime Check Cashing on Lincoln Highway in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania.
Residents around the area said they were shocked by how much the thieves got away with.
“Why is that money in an employee’s car?” asked Thomas.
“Who in their right might would think a place like this would have that much cash on hand?” questioned Whalen.
“What are the chances of a robber finding money in a car like that?” added Steve Stinus from Fairless Hills. “Regrettably, sounds like an inside job.”
Officers with the Falls Township Police Department responded to the incident just before 4 p.m. on Friday.
They said the suspects sped away in a white Ford van bearing a license plate that did not belong to the vehicle.
