“I’ve been a cop for 28 years, and I’ve never seen anything like this,” said Sgt. Cindy West. “This has come straight out of the movies.”
West explains the thieves drove two large diesel trucks into a Nintendo distribution site inside Seattle Air Cargo on Saturday evening around 9 o’clock. The thieves worked together to snatch up thousands of consoles by operating forklifts within the warehouse. Afterward, they loaded the Wiis into two 53-foot semi-truck trailers waiting outside the center along with another large box-truck van."

Robbing banks aren't profitable anymore(when compared to the risk). A combination of new security measures and inflation means that it's just not worth it anymore. Bank/armored car robbery is literally the crime of the the stupid now days(search "I used the juice").
However the criminal elements that are smart/motivated/organized still exsist like they did in the 1930s- 1950s so they're going to move on to something else. It's just surprising something physical was caught.
Practice doesn't make perfect, practice makes permanent.
