I find it unbelievable the authorities would release the amount of money taken. Unbelievable.

History Making! This is the very first time that I have ever "EVER" seen the amount cited in a news report. It has always common to report "they took an undisclosed amount of cash". Why? To prevent kindling a future robbery.
