The multi-million-dollar heist that happened at Toronto Pearson International Airport this week is not the first of its kind to take place on their grounds.
On Monday, police said a total of $20 million worth of gold and other high-value goods were reported stolen from a holding cargo facility at Toronto Pearson.
But Toronto Pearson has been the scene for a Hollywood movie-esque gold heist before – roughly 70 years ago – and it still remains a mystery to this day. “They watched the handoff, cargo workers waited, matched the manifest, signed off on it, gave a copy of the receipt,” Selby said, adding it happened in a temporary – but secure – storage area.The aircraft – a Trans-Canada Air Lines cargo plane – was headed toward Montreal, but when it touched down, it was quickly revealed not all of the cargo made it.
“This is the main theory, [Halpenny] claimed when he returned, some of the carts were missing,” Selby said. “When he looked in the cargo hold, he thought he saw the crates [...] and he didn’t do a count.”While thieves struck gold, twice, at Toronto Pearson, Selby notes it's not the only airport where a heist has taken place.
