Safe Crackers

Got to Risk it to Get the Biscuit

The crew had been planning this for weeks.

Taylor, the leader of this little band of thieves, had run the team through their parts and scenarios again and again until even Davie, the weakest link, knew his part inside and out.

Though he would never admit it, Jules was the brains of the crew. It had been her idea to hit the safe today. But she needed Taylor's authority and Davie's ability to manipulate to pull this off.

While Davie went to work feigning injury to distract the ever attentive guard, Jules gave the signal to Taylor who pushed the rig into place at the entry point. To be honest, the safe wasn't well secured, just difficult to get to. Dangerous without the appropriate know-how. Taylor had tried to get in solo before and failed, with more than just a bruised ego to show for his efforts.

This time though, it was different. Jules' rig worked perfectly. With the sounds of Davie's distraction coming from a distance and his look out giving the go signal, Taylor took off.

Inside the vault he found a much bigger stash than they had anticipated.
