A slick robbery

A sneaky and creative thief stole $238,000 from the hold of the Air Antilles plane while it was in flight. The ingenious thief had clearly planned ahead. He crawled through the plane's bathroom toilet and into the cargo hold. He must have known that a Brink's security employee had placed three sacks of cash containing a total $1.6 million in there just before takeoff. The thief feigned illness and spent nearly the entire flight in the bathroom, ostensibly getting sick.

Fox News reports that, "[The fellow] asked a flight attendant for an ambulance to meet him on the tarmac. When the ambulance arrived, the man said he felt suddenly better and walked out of the airport without having to go through the normal security checks and disappeared."
