Spain's Villena Treasure stolen in four-minute museum heist

France 24 [en] · western europe

Almost the entire Villena Treasure, one of Europe's most valuable Bronze Age collections, was stolen from a museum in eastern Spain in a four-minute raid after thieves smashed through a window and bulletproof glass. Police believe several people and vehicles were involved, and suspect the thieves created a diversion by triggering an alarm at a nearby sports centre before the break-in.
