Italian Post Office Robbed Of $7 Million

Compiled From Wire Services

Bandits held employees at gunpoint in Palermo’s main post office Saturday and made off with some $7 million in cash and other valuables.

The private TV network Italia Uno said the robbers slipped into a side door and threatened about 20 workers before escaping. No one was reported injured.

Italian post offices double as banks for millions of people.
