Thieves use explosives to steal gold 'masterpieces' from Dutch museum
Four ancient gold artefacts were stolen from Drents Museum in Assen.
Thieves used explosives to blast their way into the Drents Museum in Assen, which was hosting an exhibition of priceless Romanian jewellery made from gold and silver.
At this point I can see four possible outcomes:
They get caught and the treasure is recovered.
They get away but the treasure is later recovered.
They sell the treasure to a collector, treasure is lost for decades.
They melt it down, and the treasure is completely lost.
Seems most likely either 1 or 4 with 4 being more likely cause it's why I'd go after just gold things if I was some sort of thief.
Hopefully not though!
I'd question why a thief would go for museum artifacts if that was the plan, being that shitty jewelry stores and whatnot seem easier to shake down.
