The FBI were called in to assist the Chicago PD and later to take over after the rest of the robberies in San Franciso, Houston and LA were linked. A highly trained gang were knocking upto 10 banks in an area and moving on. There seemed to be no inside help, but the gang were highly motivated and well organised. The amounts involved were very large and for the gang to keep going meant that the money was probably for another purpose other than personal wealth. | |
| This case is closed, the gang were surrounded after the driver was identified. The gang committed suicide in the house. Briggs was never found. | |
