Dramatic images show extent of Hollywood-worthy heist in London

LONDON — It was already one for the the history books, but photos released by police Wednesday show just how Hollywood-worthy the heist in the city's jewellery quarter really was.

Released by the Flying Squad, a branch of London's Metropolitan Police Service, the images show what detectives saw when they arrived at the scene of Hatton Garden Safety Deposit Limited on April 7. Namely, suspects drilled a 50-cm (20-inch) hole through the concrete wall of the vault, using a Hilti D350.
