Authorities have released video footage of a pair of individuals that walked out of a North American racetrack this past weekend with a duffel bag that contained roughly a quarter-million dollars in cash.
The incident took place this past Saturday night (March 7) at Aqueduct in Queens, NY. The robbery was nonchalant in nature, as the pair of individuals casually walked into the track, made their move as the money was in transit with an unarmed guard, and exited the building without causing any commotion.

According to the reports, Aqueduct employees believe that the heist was pulled off with inside information, seeing as though the robbers knew exactly where to go and knew to strike exactly when the money was in transit with an unarmed guard.
