The bank heist crew carried out several robberies while hiding out at nearby Airbnb rentals, according to federal authorities.
They arrived in construction vests and surgical masks, armed with signal jammers, sledgehammers and blowtorches. The bank heist crew, made up of mainly Chilean nationals, hit multiple banks across California, according to federal prosecutors, and made off with $2.5 million. In Fresno, the crew hit a Wells Fargo in May and used tools to get inside an ATM vault through an adjacent unit and made off with more than $80,000 in cash.
' Prosecutors did not provide the club promoter's real name, but FBI agents interviewed him and learned the vehicle was rented to a man named 'Gordito,' later revealed to be Moyano. Moyano was unaware that the Chevrolet was equipped with an Apple AirTag tracking device. The vehicle's location history coincided with Airbnb rentals on multiple robbery dates, according to court records. On Sept. 18 the crew broke into a Wells Fargo in Fresno where they made off with $247,000.
