The FBI is looking for a trio of brazen robbers who attempted to knock off an armored car as it was making a bank delivery last week in Philadelphia.
The heist took place in broad daylight Thursday, just steps from the Ivy League campus of the University of Pennsylvania.
Two men approached the Garda armored car at 10 a.m., one armed with an assault rifle and the other multiple handguns, and attempted to take"a large sum of cash," according to the Philadelphia Police Department. "We both dove for cover. She went one way, I went the other," a bystander, along with her sister, told Philadelphia ABC station WPVI."I couldn't find her and that was very terrifying, very terrifying. There was a lot of bystanders at that point in time and people were running."
One man jumped into the SUV as it drove off, while the other fled on foot, police said. Authorities are now searching for both armed suspects and the driver of the vehicle.
