🚨 Japan’s most daring heist… and it’s still unsolved.
In 1968, a car carrying 300 million yen in cash for Toshiba employee bonuses was stopped by a man dressed as a motorcycle cop.
He told the bank employees their car had a bomb attached. Crawling underneath, he pretended to “defuse” it. Suddenly, smoke billowed out.
The guards panicked and ran.
The “cop” climbed in, drove off with the money… and vanished.
Despite one of the largest police investigations in Japanese history—over 170,000 officers and 110,000 suspects—the robber was never caught.
By the time the statute of limitations expired, the mysterious thief was free forever.
💴 The 300 million yen robbery remains one of the greatest unsolved crimes in history.
