Crime Heist

Det telefonsamtal som söndagen 21 februari 1999 klockan 16.15 nådde larmcentralen i Helsingfors inledde en för finska förhållanden unik brottsutredning. Personen som ringde in förklarade att han genast behövde ambulanser och polis till Skytteföreningen, då en kvinna hade anlänt till föreningen och öppnat eld mot ett flertal personer. När polisen anlände möttes de av en makaber syn. Tre unga män låg livlösa på golvet, och en hade livshotande skador.

Sensommaren 1994 plågades Köpenhamn och Fredriksberg av en våldsam rånare, som angrep ensamma expediter och hotade dem med kniv. De många rånen utlöste en av Köpenhamnspolisens mest personalkrävande aktioner. Och när knivrånaren slutligen greps, avslöjades ett samband med ett mystiskt, ouppklarat mord på en 31-årig konstnär i Martofte på Fyn. Det visade sig att samme gärningsman låg bakom samtliga brott.

"- Kommer polisen, så skjuter vi er först!" Natten efter annandag påsk 2003 rånas Securitas värdetransportbil och Sparbanken Tanums kontor i Grebbestad av fem maskerade rånare. Rånarna är beväpnade med AK4, jaktgevär, avsågat hagelgevär och pistoler. De har även med sig sprängämnen för att kunna spränga sig in i värdetransportbilen om väktarna inte kunnat öppna den. Rånet är brutalt och mycket välplanerat, och väktarna ställs inför en utmaning de sent kommer glömma. I Nordisk kriminalkrönika berättar poliser själva om sina mest uppmärksammade, omskakande, och svåra fall.

Stockholms förflutna består till stor del av en rad mörka och skrämmande incidenter som utspelade sig mitt i centrums hjärta. Mördare, spioner, mordbrännare, tjuvar och smugglare fanns det gott om och människor från alla samhällsklasser hamnade på fel sida om lagen. I "Glömda mord och andra försvunna" brott har Petter Inedahl samlat en mängd oberättade historier från 1950- och 60-talet från Stockholms stadsarkiv, polisens arkiv och Riksarkivet.

Gennem et stykke tid havde der været flere indbrud i villaer nord for København, og hver gang var det dyre ting som B&O-anlæg og lignende, der blev stjålet. Fælles ved de indbrud, hvor gerningsmændene var blevet set, var at de var maskerede og kørte fra stedet i hurtige biler.

Fredag den 22. maj 1992 lidt over middag bragede der er skud midt i Skanderborg. Dette skud var indledningen til anholdelsen af to gerningsmænd, som netop havde forøvet røveri mod Den Danske Bank på Højvangens Torv i Skanderborg, og hvor fremgangsmåden var identisk med andre bankrøverier forøvet i Esbjerg, Vejle og Horsens Politikreds.

Onsdag den 25. November 1987 kl. 10.05 blev der forøvet væbnet røveri mod det, der dengang hed Handelsbanken på Solgårdsvej i Skodsborg, en afdeling der både før og efter denne dato har været udsat for røveri.

"En augustimorgon år 1911 smyger en man osedd ut genom en bakdörr på konstmuseet Louvren i Paris. Tätt intill kroppen bär han en tavla, väl dold under kläderna. Mannen har stulit Mona Lisa, och snart är damen med det gåtfulla leendet världens mest eftersökta person." I "Miljonkupp och rån" skildras några av historiens mest spektakulära, och ibland uppfinningsrika, rån. Som rånet då elva mön iklädda Halloweenmasker kom undan med det största bytet i USAs historia, eller när en man utklädd till tomte rånar en bank den 23 december.
