Jobe bank robbed by unidentified assailants
April 15, 29480 - [Global]
OTPC - Early yesterday evening, the sirens began to blare in Jobe, alerting the guards in all areas of the city to a disturbance in Jobe Plaza. Upon my arrival in Jobe, I noticed smoke pouring off the sides of the Plaza, viewable even as I looked up from the platform. Transport rings were soon shut down, but not before this eager reporter managed to get access to the scene.
Smoke billowed from the area, with guards patrolling back and forth, I managed to speak to a Jobe Investigator who had this to say: “At this time, we believe the amount taken from the bank is an estimated four-hundred billion credits. We are unsure as to the identity of the perpetrators behind this incident, but have a lead on the weapon used to breach both the main and vault doors of the bank since some residual traces of a volatile chemical used in the explosion have been found at the scene.”
Based on holo-reconstructions and the accounts of the first Jobe guards on the scene, six men were seen leaving the bank approximately three minutes after the first explosion, who then proceeded to run south and left the Plaza apparently via encoded personal grid access. Despite pursuit by several guards, the traces of these men dispersed once they used their evac devices.
