Police have caught someone involved in the massive bank heist that occurred last October. Cops grabbed a suspect connected to the $4 million Ecobank robbery that shocked Bulawayo. The arrest came months after armed thieves pulled off the biggest cash grab the country has ever seen. Inspector Nomalanga Msebele confirmed that the suspect is heading to court on Friday but kept the details under wraps. Law enforcement sources revealed the person worked as a security guard for Safeguard company.

The brazen daylight robbery unfolded outside the NRZ Building on Fife Street last year. Safeguard guards were loading money boxes from the bank into their van when trouble struck. A Ford Ranger truck pulled up, and masked gunmen jumped out with weapons ready. The robbers overpowered the security team and grabbed the cash-filled trunks. They tossed everything into their pickup truck and sped away from the scene.

The entire heist lasted just 149 seconds from start to finish. Safeguard had been moving the money from the Ecobank branch as part of their regular transport duties. The robbers knew exactly when and where to strike for maximum impact. Their quick getaway left police scrambling to piece together what happened. This record-breaking theft put Zimbabwe on the map for all the wrong reasons.
