LANCASTER (CNS) - The Federal Bureau of Investigation and local law enforcement agencies continued an investigation today into the theft of millions of dollars in jewelry and gems from a Brink's truck in Lancaster.

Brink's has not released specifics about the heist but did release a statement: “According to the information the customers provided to us before they shipped their items, the total value of the missing items is less than $10 million. We are working with law enforcement, and we will fully reimburse our customers for the value of their assets that were stolen, in accordance with the terms of our contract.”
