They Stole $432,000 With a Fake Radio - How They Knew the Route

A perfectly timed radio call stopped an armored truck in broad daylight and, within ten minutes, $432,000 was gone - no weapons, no roadblock, just a voice on the right frequency. How did the crew know the truck’s exact route and get a Meridian transceiver locked to Crown Valley’s private channel?

In this episode, we follow the timeline from the May 14, 2011 pickup at Farber Field to the discovery three days later of a programmed radio unit and the investigative questions that shifted the case toward insider access. What did a former Crown Valley communications technician’s personnel record reveal about who could obtain that frequency?

Event: Farber Field gate receipts moved on May 14, 2011
Amount: $432,000
People: Tom Neville, Pete Sutter, Connie Burke, Ralph Meyer
Device: Meridian-series transceiver locked to Crown Valley UHF dispatch channel

- The radio call telling driver Tom Neville to turn onto Kearney Boulevard came at 6:59 a.m.
- The entire interception and removal of cash took under ten minutes with no physical threats.
- The stolen cash originated from a large-scale event the night before and was scheduled for delivery to Caldwell First Savings on Merchant Avenue.
- A white cargo van abandoned two blocks from the interception had a temporary paper plate and a magnetic Crown Valley sign; it was purchased for $4,000 in cash eleven days earlier.
- A Meridian-series transceiver was found on May 17, eleven blocks east of the interception site, turned on and locked to Crown Valley’s dispatch channel.
