Six hooded individuals, wearing beekeeper masks and riot gear, stole the Villena Treasure, a renowned gold archaeological collection, from the Villena Museum (Muvi) in Spain. The robbery was carried out with military precision, lasting only four minutes, during which the thieves broke the display cases and fled immediately.

At least two luxury vehicles were used to block access to the building and facilitate the escape, and investigators are not ruling out the involvement of more people in this carefully planned operation.
