Armed Robbers Steal $163 Million Worth of Art From Zurich Museum

Four Paintings were stolen on Sunday by three armed, masked men who were 5' 9" and one spoke with a Russian accent. They believe it may be one of the most spectacular robberies in the history of Switzerland. Why? Because the stolen paintings were four of the most famous paintings ever made. I think it is the most ridiculous robbery ever. They should have tighter security in a museum like that. Especially with paintings like that in the museum. The worth of these paintings? $163.2 million. Now that's a large chunk of money. I sure hope they get the paintings back!
