Three masked robbers apparently armed with a grenade launcher held up an armored vehicle and made off with at least $880,000, police said.
Riding in two stolen cars, the robbers ran the armored van off the road in a Duesseldorf suburb Monday night and forced the two guards to hand over three boxes of cash, police said.
A shot was fired during the heist but no one was hurt, a police spokeswoman said.
