Hatton Garden Heist
The Hatton Garden Heist was a notorious burglary that took place over the Easter weekend in 2015 in London's Hatton Garden, a famous jewelry district. A group of elderly men, many of whom were experienced criminals, broke into a safe deposit company by drilling through a two-meter-thick concrete wall. They stole an estimated £14 million worth of cash, jewelry, and other valuables.
The heist was meticulously planned, and the criminals used tools like diamond-tipped drills to execute their plan. Despite their age, the gang managed to evade capture for several days, but they were eventually arrested and convicted. The case highlighted issues of aging crime and security vulnerabilities in high-value areas.
