LOL!
What you wanna bet they had inside information? Why wasn't all that cash moved to a bank?
A single security guard watching it. After a similar incident in 2013? Ridi-c-u-lous.
Ah, Mexico.........

Not putting it in the bank eliminates one obstacle to putting it in your pocket..........

I read in the local news that the guard supposedly confessed. When I heard about it, I immediately suspected that "Ratony" Agundez was behind it.

Translated pages can be confusing, but did I read correctly that there is a 20% discount for paying taxes in cash?
If so, this sounds like not only an inside job, but planned well in advance at a high level!
A big boost from the measly half million they stole the last time.

But was the money recovered?
Here is an article that points to the city treasurer and (I believe) the head (curator, using Google Translate?) of the municipal police force of Cabo
being involved.
What a shocker!! An inside job!!!

The 20% discount was for paying your taxes in January, whatever form. I used a debit card.

Bajajudy, thanks for the correction, that makes more sense!
It still has me scratching my head as to how and why they had that much cash on hand?

I read in another report that there was evidence that the torches were used to make it look like the safes were cut open, but they were actually
opened by someone with the combination. My guess is that the money was removed during business hours by someone high in the municipal government then
they attempted to make it look like a robbery. I wonder what Ratony's cut was?

The money will never be recovered. It's probably already in Ratony's Swiss
bank account, along with the rest of the money he's stolen over the years.

San Jose Cabo, Baja California Sur the first investigations of the Attorney General of State Justice (PGJE) Millionaire after robbery at the
headquarters of the municipal palace of the XI City of Los Cabos, point to two of the leading men of the mayor Jose Antonio Agundez Montano. Is
Manriquez Gerardo Amador Treasurer and Commissioner of the management of public security, police and Municipal Transit, roses William Brown, who

Treasury. The PGJE indicated that the thieves had information that only the municipal treasurer and his top advisers, Susana Burgoin Amezquita, Ana
Luisa Guluarte Arista and Hector de Jesus Olmos, directors of financial, accounting, revenues and expenses, respectively, knew of the existence and
location of the safe where the money that has been raised on January 31 as part of the last day of 15 20 percent discount on payment of property tax
program was saved. The criminals had all his perpetrate a millionaire robbery, and be very precise in the coup, because when they entered the seat of

guarding the security of the government office one Sector. Worse. Guard only version of the headquarters of the City Hall in Los Cabos, Raul Orozco
Martinez police, allegedly sent by criminals, it is unlikely, especially it because when he heard the first sounds, and being almost 30 meters where
he allegedly entered the thieves, did absolutely nothing to stop them, despite carrying on a two-way radio and 9mm pistol range and suspiciously, was
left to send quickly without any resistance. According brands ministerial declaration of the alleged beatings of offenders on the left and right cheek
and knees on the back, does not appear anywhere. Physically and according to the doctor's opinion, no traces of blows, therefore, has never been so
beaten. By contrast, when the theft was in the process of police known as "Tatu" left City Hall around 3:45 in the morning, when he became one of the
two patrols in Sector one informed without incident . After 22 minutes, then drain the alleged thieves, reported the theft millionaire; first come by
chance was the commander of the guard at night, Jesus Leyva Valenzuela, aboard the patrol DST-1003, business agent Paul Portal. With this information,
the PGJE began SJC 84 TUR 2015 preliminary information that the case of the robbery was planned from the treasury, because only the holder and his
people knew of the existence of the safe and protected from municipal, because being responsible for the security police, offered every facility
criminals and millionaire could consummate the theft. Jose Antonio Agundez Montano is satisfied that the financial coup was planned from the treasury
and the municipal police because he was so synchronized that there was no fault and they were not wrong," said a close associate.
