Story 6: Weird News: Theft of 2 million dimes from truckload of coins from US Mint leaves four facing federal charges
Federal authorities have released more details and unsealed charges related to the theft of over 2 million dimes from a tractor-trailer that had picked up the coins from the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia. The truck driver was en route to Miami when the theft occurred, with thieves making off with approximately $234,500 in stolen dimes. The theft was part of a series of robberies targeting tractor-trailers in the region, including frozen crab legs, shrimp, meat, beer, and liquor. Surveillance video showed six individuals breaking into the truck and stealing the dimes, which were later converted into cash using coin machines or bank deposits. Four men from Philadelphia are facing conspiracy, robbery, theft of government money, and other charges in connection with the theft.
