CultureThieves steal Bronze Age treasure in a carefully planned four-minute Spanish museum heist
Thieves stole most of Spain’s Treasure of Villena, a collection of mainly gold Bronze Age artefacts worth at least €1.7m. Officials said the raid on the Villena Museum lasted about four minutes, with the thieves apparently entering through a window. Authorities are investigating whether an earlier sports-centre alarm was a diversion.
