Romanian gang robbing truck from bonnet of car

Incredible footage has been released showing Romanian gangsters breaking into the back of a truck as they hurtle along a motorway at night.
The thieves quickly drive up behind their target vehicle, positioning themselves so close that its driver would be unable to see them in his mirrors.
Two men can then be seen emerging from the sunroof. As one edges out on to the bonnet the other grabs his legs and holds him steady.

The gangster then calmly breaks open the truck's rear doors using a specialist tool which was later recovered by police.

He takes a peek inside but then, perhaps because he is unimpressed with the contents, he abandons the robbery and the two men climb back inside the vehicle.
Officers from the country's Department for Organised Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT) were able to film the daring manoeuvre from a police helicopter.

A spokesman for the police said the gang had already used the technique to carry out many successful robberies from moving vehicles between March and May of this year.
The gangsters were caught following an operation involving 20 house searches in the Romanian counties of Ilov, Alba and Hunedora as well as in the capital city, Bucharest.
According to police they stole televisions, cigarettes and coffee which were later sold on in the Obor market in Bucharest.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2158533/Incredible-video-shows-Romanian-gang-robbing-truck-bonnet-car-hurtle-motorway.html
