>> i would definitely say they are very concerned. there is worry right now, they don't know where this infection occurred. this was a health care worker who was fully suited up, supposedly following all the cdc

happening again in the future? that is the key right now for them isolating and identifying this breach of protocol. this health care worker told interviewers that she, herself, didn't know where it occurred.

>> go to you now, kelly. susan rice making that comment that more countries need to work together to be able to combat this virus and you're there in london, watching not only the steps taken in the uk, but then there's also the case in europe in spain. >> reporter: that's right and some conflicting information about that case in spain tonight. first of all, we have heard that the nurse is doing better. she is still serious, but is showing signs of improvement.

and there were reports that she's been treated with zmapp. this is medicine,er piquesmental medicine used on a couple of ebola survivors now, shown to be fairly effective. conflicting reports, the government says no, we have no record of her being treated with that. she is being treated with some anti-bodies from people who have survived ebola, but they do say that they have zmabb, with a b, one of the components going into

zmapp. now, in terms of contributions, the uk is preparing to send about 750 troops to set up hospitals. other orders bank employees to take them toward the vault. >> someone had locked the doors from the interior so nobody could come in during the robbery. they also went over to the drapes in the drive through and closed the drapes so nobody could see in through the windows that way. >> the bank employees are now at the mercy of the thieves. with guns pointed at their heads, the employees lead the robbers into the vault. once there, the thieves remove as much currency as they can fit into their black duffel bag. >> when they had the tellers at

the vault, they kept telling them not to look at them. one of the robbers had put one of the handguns up to one of the teller's heads. one of the girls kept looking up at one of the robbers. he had grabbed her by the hair and then threw her to the ground. >> they tie their hands behind their backs with clear plastic zip ties. they use plastic zip ties to avoid detection. the ties can be purchased anywhere. the robbers restrain their victims without leaving any meaningful evidence for police. after loading currency into their bag, more than $120,000 in 20s, 50s, and 100s, the two thieves leave one teller on the ground and take the second teller with them out of the vault. >> at the time it's going on, you don't know if the guns are real or fake, what the intentions of the people are. you're getting ordered around, thrown to the ground, zip tied, and led away. it's quite a terrifying experience for them. >> the heist takes just over four minutes. the two perpetrators leave, heading out the south entrance of the building to their escape vehicle. they leave the teller they brought with them just inside the door, still tied up. but what the robbers don't know is that the other teller has freed her hands from the zip tie.

she now rushes to the phone to call 911. >> 911, what is your emergency? >> tcf bank on 127th and ridgeland just got robbed. >> okay. do you have a description of the offender? >> the most important information to get an offender, there was a weapon used, what they were wearing, what they looked like, if they left in a car, get the make, model of the vehicle, a license plate, if you can, which direction they left, so that the officers responding can either start heading that way to cut them off, if they are no longer there, that it's safer for the officers when they get on scene. >> one is a female and the other is a male. >> a male and a female? do you know if they're white, black, hispanic? >> black. >> were both wearing masks? >> yes, both had a mask on, like the "scream" mask on. >> she said that they were wearing "scream"-type masks. i had never taken any calls when anyone has used those type of masks. i've taken them when they used ski-type masks, so i wanted to make sure i heard what she was saying so i had to ask to

verify. like scream-type masks? >> you know the "scream" costume? >> "scream" costume? i thought it was crazy. i know that stuff happens, but i thought it was a little extreme. ski mask is one thing. >> the thieves get away with more than $120,000 in cash. coming up, these hollywood-style bandits baffle police, because like in the movies, their masks perfectly disguise who they really are. >> and of all the towns and all the big cities, you find a three-mile town to commit this armed robbery at and you use the movie "the town" and brought us national news coverage.

it's memorial day weekend 2011 in palos heights, illinois, a sleepy suburb outside of chicago. as employees prepare to close the tcf bank, two masked thieves

enter through the front door, make a beeline for the vault, and leave with more than $120,000 in cash. the bank teller gives the police a description of the getaway car, a silver four-door chevrolet. about half a mile away, officer brent dreger is driving through a palos heights subdivision. >> it was raining. we'd been slow all day, so i tried to hit the side streets to make a presence in the neighborhood. >> a slow day becomes memorable when dreger realizes how close he is to the scene of the crime. >> nobody was outside. i didn't know if they were still inside, if there were hostages inside or what was going on. i sat out to south of the building and waited for updates from dispatch. >> detective jerry watka is out of town for memorial day weekend, but he's on call and gets to the bank as quickly as he can. >> when i got to the scene, the tellers were still at the

facility. the officers had set up a perimeter and basically blocked everything off in an attempt to preserve the crime scene. >> palos heights police call in the illinois state crime scene investigation team to see if any clues had been left at the bank. at first glance, detectives believe the robbers planned the heist carefully, and they made it impossible for witnesses to identify them by wearing full body costumes that conceal who they are, with eerie masks straight out of a hollywood movie. >> during the 911 call, one of the tellers described them as costumes from the movie "scream." >> they had a mask on that had like the "scream" mask on. >> we later determined after watching the video that it was, in fact, from another movie. >> that movie is from "the town," which had been released the previous year. it's a movie about bank robberies and features a scene where robbers wear the very same masks. >> it's a molded mask that goes over the head and conceals the head. there are openings for the eyes that do reveal more than the eyes there.

the mask itself is an elderly face. she's wearing a nun habit. >> it's only a matter of time before someone committed a crime that mimicked this movie. >> detectives discover these robbers did everything they could to cover their tracks. but sometimes, the best-laid plans turn out to be the worst ideas. >> the more steps they are going to take to commit the robbery is more opportunities for them to make mistakes or not be as smart as they thought they were, and that enabled us to start putting clues together. >> detective watka analyzes the security camera footage, hoping it will result in a lead. >> touching certain surfaces, could there be dna? could there be fingerprints? if they did injure themselves on anything, are they leaving anything behind? what hand are they carrying stuff in? what's the strong hand? what's the weak hand? >> one thing the security footage reveals is the sheer terror the bank employees experience. >> this is one screen where the gun is pointed at the victim

teller's head. one thing that must be going through her mind is, am i going to be shot in the head? am i going to be tragically injured in this scenario? like you see there, it's clearly fingers within the trigger guard. everybody's making snap decisions, and sometimes they make the wrong decisions and, obviously, these decisions last a lifetime. >> while detective watka looks at security camera footage, the crime scene is examined by illinois state police crime scene investigators. crime scene services finds two pieces of physical evidence that may help track the thieves. >> there were some zip ties that were left by the offenders. the tellers were zip tied, their hands together, one of the zip ties was left at the scene. that was photographed. and little did i know, there's different sizes, different kinds, different colors. small pieces of evidence, but we didn't know if they touched those zip ties prior to putting those gloves on, we potentially would have dna. >> also the rain provides investigators a big break. an impression from one of the

robbers' shoes is found on top of the counter, left behind when the robber jumped over it. >> in this case, the robbers walked in, locked doors right away, hopped counters, knew where the employees were. knew how to shut the drapes on the drive-thru windows. so they were familiar with this bank. >> the robbers scream at the tellers to only open certain drawers in the vault. those drawers contain only large bills. the drawers they leave alone are filled with small currency and loose change. they know exactly which drawers to empty. realizing the robbers must have done prior surveillance, detective watka learns a detail from the bank employees that breaks the case open. >> three hours before the actual bank robbery itself, a male black subject had walked into the bank to access a safety deposit box. what made it stand out for them was some of the comments he made in asking, "hey, just you two today?" >> detectives scan through surveillance footage of the

bank's parking lot to see what kind of vehicle the man drove and find he didn't drive a vehicle at all. >> there's an opening here between these two large evergreen trees and the camera that's mounted on the rear of the bank, this is the first time we see the suspect from about the shoulder up. we see the suspect and he's walking this way. now bear in mind, it's raining out, and it would be unusual for anybody to want to walk to the bank in the rain. most people want to park close to the bank. we view him on video and he's walking this way, which is somewhat odd. as he gets here to the driveway, this is where he begins to walk towards to the back of the bank. we see him on video at this point and we follow him on video, and this is where he initially walks up to the bank. >> the man wants to check out a safety deposit box. in order to do that, he must sign in on a sheet of paper that records everyone who retrieves one of the boxes. >> this guy actually put his real name on there and he went

and checked his safety deposit box. we believed that he potentially could have been one of the guys involved in the robbery. we definitely want to i.d. him and find him, see what his deal was, why he was walking in the rain to get to a bank in palos heights that day. >> after searching police databases, police find financial records that link the man, 28-year-old lyndon wesley, to a woman named navahcia edwards, age 25. edwards is a former employee of the tcf bank and a chase bank in the same area. >> we learn that through the fbi that she had been caught embezzling between $20,000 and $30,000. she was brought in by the bank investigators and had actually confessed but agreed to make restitution. this woman had worked at the bank before. she was listed as an associate of the male customer who was in part of the bank robbery and that she had been in some financial trouble in the past.

>> edwards is charged with theft, but she could escape conviction if she pays the money back. detectives discover in an effort to raise more funds, edwards has a new job. she has an online website advertising her as an adult model and x-rated actress. >> it's not often, at least i haven't found it in my career, where you're investigating a bank robbery suspect and they are an escort, who are sending photos of themselves on the internet. that was a first for me. >> police now believe edwards plotted to rob her old bank to pay back her debt and then some. through tracking edwards' credit card purchases, detectives find proof that she bought the nun masks online and the zip ties from a local hardware store. credit card statements also show she rented a silver chevrolet, the same make and model as the getaway car, a week prior to the bank robbery. the fbi obtains a search warrant

for the home of the man whom they believe is the male robber. they are hoping to find some evidence linking the man to the robbery, but find none. >> we were hoping to find masks, guns, zip ties, receipts, anything like that that could be used to associate him with the robbery. unfortunately, we were not able to find anything at that time. coming up -- with only circumstantial evidence connecting the suspects to the crime, detectives struggle to build an open and shut case. and they need to follow the money. >> in terms of it being an oddity, this would probably rank at the top of all the cases i've ever handled.

two armed thieves held up a bank in a chicago suburb on memorial day weekend, but what makes this robbery more notable is not the $120,000 in cash stolen from the bank's vault, it's the masks robbers wore while doing it, nuns masks bought from an online halloween store.

>> out of all the towns and all the big cities and so forth, you find a three-square-mile town in the midwest to commit this armed robbery at and you use the movie "the town" and brought us national news coverage to small little palos heights. >> but the thieves don't have the professional prowess of the crooks from the movie. their missteps have led detectives to their doors. a search warrant is issued for the home of suspect lyndon wesley, but nothing is found. no cash, guns, or other evidence. suspect navahcia edwards, a part-time adult actress, has been tied to the crime. her credit card records show that she rented the getaway car and purchased the masks. because she's not making enough money as an adult actress, police believe she pulled off the heist to pay back the $20,000 she owes for stealing from a chase bank where she worked.

it's that debt that winds up getting her arrested. >> she had not made full restitution on the bank embezzling case, we were actively out looking for her. we got the okay if we were to locate her to take her into custody based on the embezzlement case. we found her driving down 294 in a car by herself and some other detectives saw her driving, got behind her. i was in contact with the fbi and they said tell them to go ahead and pull her over and take her into custody. >> but once in custody, navahcia edwards doesn't cooperate. she continues to deny that she's responsible, even after her partner in crime and boyfriend, lyndon wesley, confesses and names her as the instigator. wesley tells authorities that he burned the nuns costumes in a grill. he says they split the money, with some going to put down a deposit on an engagement ring for the two of them. he also says edwards was inspired to pull off the heist

after watching the movie "the town" two weeks earlier. it's then that authorities change the charge against edwards from her failure to pay back her old employer for the theft of $20,000 to a federal indictment for bank robbery. at trial, navahcia edwards pleads not guilty. her defense attorney claims the testimony of two bank tellers who say they could see edwards' black skin through the eye holes of the mask is wrong. they point to a surveillance image that shows the female bank robber's arm is white. the defense goes on to claim a white robber used face paint to describe herself as a black person to confuse witnesses. >> whether it's overexposure or something in the film where race became an issue here, where was it caucasian suspect or african-american, it was just because of this little fabric where the robe came back and the glove exposed part of the skin.

>> u.s. district judge matthew kennelly decides to settle the matter for himself. >> the judge had put on the mask in his chambers to see, in fact, if he could see any of his own skin. >> when the judge looks in the mirror with a mask on, he says it's obvious he can see his own skin through the eye holes. he believes the testimony of the bank tellers, who said the robbers were african-american. navahcia edwards is found guilty of theft, bank robbery, and conspiracy. police are not surprised edwards is convicted, despite her best efforts to mimic the robbery in a hollywood movie. >> i've been here in palos heights 23 years, and in terms of it being an oddity and unusual, this would probably rank at the top of all the cases i've ever handled. they went to some pretty good extremes to actually mimic the movie, all the attempts to conceal their identity, construct what drawers to open. what they did was give us more leads to find out who they were faster.

coming up, the brazen theft of $17 million from an armored car facility, one of the largest heists in history. >> it was probably true that everybody who works at loomis fargo at some point during their time working there thinks about stealing from the place.

it's 6:45 p.m., october 4th, 1997, charlotte, north carolina. this is loomis fargo & company. this armored car facility houses millions of dollars, and right now, just one employee, vault supervisor, david ghantt. >> david started working at the loomis fargo in 1994 and the job immediately put him into very close contact with massive amounts of money. he would be putting it into trucks, taking it out of trucks. he'd be delivering it to banks. there was no aspect of money handling that he was not part

of. >> at the end of the workday, a company trainee leaves, while ghantt stays behind. his wife is expecting him for dinner, but he calls and tells her he will be home late. left alone with millions of dollars in cash, ghantt is trying to work up the nerve to follow through with a plan that will forever change his life. each day, area banks transfer funds to other banks through here. the loomis fargo & company's armored cars act as a conduit for the currency. sometimes millions at a time. >> you'd have vans pulling up all day and dropping money off, taking money back to go to banks. these were typically unmarked vans. you're talking about a place where tens and millions of dollars would move through on a regular basis. >> to loomis fargo, it's just product, just inventory. they're just trying to move it from place to place. they pick some up, they drop some off, and in the off hours,

they stick it all in the vault. they are putting it on pallets, remember, we're talking about large sums of it. and they separate it by different methods, barcodes, and shrink wrap. >> for months, david scott ghantt had been plotting to make a move. he's in love with a former loomis employee, kelly campbell. she tells ghantt they will hide out together in mexico. each will bring their share of the cash, which could total more than $10 million. they will quietly spend the rest of their lives in love, living off the stolen money. what ghantt doesn't know is kelly campbell is lying. >> kelly started at loomis fargo in 1996. she was attractive, had dirty blonde hair, and an attitude that drew him to her. she and david got to know each other when he asked to have a cigarette. he went up to her one day and kind of said in a flirty way, "if you let me have a cigarette i'll let you be my friend." kelly said, "i don't need any

more friends, but yeah, you can have a cigarette." he liked that attitude. >> after she leaves her job at loomis fargo, they kept in touch. >> kelly would talk with david after she left loomis fargo and it was during these phone conversations that the idea was planted in david's mind. the idea had been planted in kelly's mind through conversations with steve chambers the previous summer. >> steve chambers is a high school friend of kelly's. he is a convicted felon with a reputation as a smalltime con man. but he has a big heist on his mind. >> steven chambers was a burly man around town in gastonia, lincoln county, who had been involved in various scams in the past. but he was always looking for the next thing to do. he was the one who came up with this idea. he had known that kelly had worked at loomis fargo and that she knew the ins and outs of the building in working there. in 1997, he said, do you think it's possible to steal from loomis fargo?

do you know anybody who still works there that might be still willing to do that? >> kelly campbell asks david ghantt if the robbery would be something he'd be willing to do. working at the loomis fargo facility every day, earning low pay, and seeing all the money come and go, he considers the ways millions of dollars could change his life. >> kelly campbell put the idea to david's mind that not only did he deserve better, but that he could make it happen. and perhaps for the two of them as a couple. so she was the impetus or the push behind it for david. >> david got kind of excited about the prospect of leaving his current life. he was unhappy in his marriage. he hated his job. he hated his employers. the amount of money he was making was $7 or $8 an hour. he was working a lot of overtime. he felt unappreciated there, and he started to see himself as somebody who might be able to pull it off. >> the team assembled might be his undoing.

ghantt might be the one committing the actual robbery, but steve chambers is the ringleader behind the operation. >> there's a lot in this tale that owes to hollywood depiction of crime. steve chambers was a big fan of the movie, "reservoir dogs." in "reservoir dogs," the thieves do not know each other's names. and the reason for that is when the police come to get them later on, they won't be able to identify each other. it was a saturday, and david worked that day with a trainee, who obviously was very new to the company and did not know the ropes. david was actually relying on this. he figured he would be able to tell the trainee when it was okay to leave. in fact, david actually at the end of the shift, left the door of the vault ajar. normally, it would have been closed. the trainee didn't know to ask about this. >> the vault is a fortified gray room. it is rectangular in shape. shelves and file cabinets line its walls with push carts used to transport bales of shrink-wrapped money.

vans can pull up inside the building and alongside the vault, so those outside the facility's walls can't see the money being loaded. ghantt backs up an unmarked company van near the vault entrance and opens the vehicle's back door. >> his idea was he was going to take every last cent he could. he reasoned beforehand, it doesn't matter if you're a thief if you take $50,000 or $20 million. it is the act of theft that's going to get you in trouble. as long as there's no violence involved, your sentence is not going to be that different. >> for more than an hour, ghantt loads stacks of cash in the van. some of the cash is on push carts, but much of it is on the shelves and the floor. the facility security cameras capture it all, but david ghantt plans to remove the tapes before he leaves. the stacks are heavy, and david ghantt is not exactly muscular.

at 6'1" and 165 pounds, he's in no shape to quickly load the money. each cart, holding abo $2 million in cash, takes ghantt seven to eight minutes to transfer into the unmarked van. >> you could tell he was struggling. imagine just moving over a ton of stone. he was sweating, he was struggling. it took him two hours to load up this truck, and you can see him, he's just wiped out. and in between, he keeps getting text pages, right, messages. >> the messages are coming from kelly campbell, who's waiting outside with steve chambers and the rest of the crew. ghantt will not rest until he loads all the money, which takes him until 7:45. now he closes the vault and sets the vault security timer so that the door cannot be opened for more than two days. he takes the vault keys with him as well.

before he leaves, ghantt takes the tapes from the two security cameras. he believes this is the only proof that connects him to the crime. >> he knew where both machines were. you could see that all, filming inside and outside the building, were being covered by those two machines. what he was unaware of, there was a redundant system that was monitoring a couple of those cameras. >> ghantt gets into the driver's seat, starts the van and makes his way to the building's electronic back gate. all that stands between him and a clean getaway is the gate's electronic button. but when he presses it, nothing happens. coming up -- with the back gate locked, david ghantt will have to find another way out of the loomis fargo & company facility. >> the gate didn't work, so david panicked. after all, he'd already committed the crime. new charmin ultra strong, dude.

cleans so well, it keeps your underwear cleaner. so clean you could wear them a second day. new charmin ultra strong. it's 4 times stronger, and you can use up to 4 times less. enjoy the go with charmin.

it's 8:00 p.m., saturday, october 4th, 1997, charlotte, north carolina. loomis fargo vault supervisor, david ghantt, has just stolen over $17 million. at the time, it's the second largest cash heist in u.s. history. but david ghantt has a big problem. despite having successfully loaded more than a ton of money into an unmarked van, ghantt cannot get the back gates of the loomis fargo facility to open. a flaw in the security system keeps the gates locked. despite his best efforts to force them open, nothing happens. instead, he will have to move the unmarked van to the front gates of the building and will have to move two vehicles blocking that gate in order to get out.

lying low just outside are ghantt's accomplices, kelly campbell, steve chambers, the ringleader of the plot, and chambers' cousin, scott grant. once david ghantt moves the two weeks, chambers sends a reluctant scott grant to help open the front gate. a few miles away, ghantt pulls the van into the garage of a building, where another accomplice, eric payne, works. this is the next part of their plan. where ghantt gives the van and the money to steve chambers. kelly campbell is supposed to take ghantt to the airport in her car. he gives the keys to the van to steve chambers, gets in kelly campbell's car, and leaves $17 million with a handful of strangers. now steve chambers' cousin, scott, has lost track of which key on ghantt's key ring will open the doors of the van. he will have to sort through dozens of keys to find the right

one. >> then they went to trying to break into the vehicle using stones and sticks and whatever else they could find on the property, but it's an armored van. you're not going to break into this thing. it's bulletproof glass, and even if you got in, it was inside a locked cage. unless they had a blowtorch, they weren't getting in that truck. >> meanwhile, campbell drives ghantt to the airport in columbia, south carolina, where ghantt believes he will board a flight to mexico. >> as they drove through the parking lot, they realized everything in the airport seemed a little dark. the airport was closed. david was enraged about this. he thought, i'm putting myself at a considerable risk here by stealing this money. at the very least my accomplices could do was buy me an airline ticket. so, david got on a bus to atlanta, where he was able to get a ticket to new orleans, then he was able to get a ticket to mexico. >> ghantt's accomplices finally open the van after trying nearly half the keys.

>> it was more cash than any of them could have imagined. they didn't fully understand how much cash was in the loomis facility when they took it. transferring the money from the back of the van, they were putting it into three blue barrels. steve had this idea that if they got stopped for speeding or just, you know, a vehicle stop of any kind, he would make it look like he was haoing off three barrels of dog food. which in retrospect doesn't make a lot of sense because who has three barrels of dog food, you know, at midnight on saturday night. based on a lot of time trying to go through and say where are the 100s, where are the 50s, where are the 20s, they were working their way down through the currency. when the barrels were full, they left, and they left about $3.3 million behind. >> when police and fbi responded to the robbery the next day, the only employee not to show up for work is vault supervisor david ghantt. >> authorities have been looking for 27-year-old david scott ghantt, guard and driver here, who the fbi now considers a suspect.

>> david, you know that i love you, that your family loves you, my family loves you. we believe that you are the victim here, david, and we stand by you 100%. >> while ghantt's friends and family members plead for his safe return, the stolen money is taken to steve chambers' mobile him in a trailer park in nearby gastonia. >> imagine sitting on $14 million, and you struggle just buying your groceries, so you think having $14 million is going to be great. you still have a logistical problem of sitting on all this cash. what happens if someone breaks in? what happens if the trailer catches on fire? what happens if there's a problem at home and an ambulance comes or the police knock on the door? you can't hide this. i mean, it's stacked against the walls. >> chambers recruits several friends and family members to open safety deposit boxes at area banks. the new accomplices then stuff the containers full of bills and

compact hundreds of thousands of dollars in each box. and then, chambers and his wife, michelle, start spending money like it's going out of style. >> the chambers were amongst the first to come up on the radar as far as those in the area who are spending an awful lot of money and couldn't account for it. >> about three weeks after the crime, he and his wife purchased a house in a wealthy part of the county, kramer mountain. they move from a mobile home to a house that in 1997, he bought for $635,000. michelle bought a very expensive bmw. they were living very large. >> steve and michelle chambers are who they are, right? they didn't change who they were because they had money. so they brought a lot of things that they had already owned or stolen, put it into that house. but they added their own touches and decoration to it. >> it isn't how steve and michelle chambers spend the money that tips off police, but the unorthodox way michelle attempts to deposit the cash.

>> she watches tv. she watches movies. and she thinks you come in with briefcase full of cash. nobody does that. so she comes in and she asks the bank teller, how much can i deposit before i have to fill out one of those government forms? she didn't know what it was. it's called a suspicious activity report. that alone was enough for the bank to go, something's odd about this transaction. they filled out the suspicious activity report and the fbi gets that a short time later. >> michelle makes another mistake that will provide irrefutable evidence. >> we're already following michelle. we know every bank that she goes to. she's almost on a routine now. she's hitting these banks on a very specific day. and we happen to be at the branch at the time that michelle was making a deposit. and when she made that deposit, we immediately went behind the teller window after she left and grabbed the straps right off the counter. one of the straps bore the initials of a loomis fargo employee who had counted currency prior to the theft of the $17 million.

that conclusively tied that deposit and that currency to the loomis fargo theft. >> we just needed to find a connection between david scott ghantt and steve and michelle chambers. it was obvious from evidence gathered at the scene, david scott ghantt was the person who'd removed the money. but we didn't know, truly, if it was by course of his own free will. and once we took a closer look at kelly campbell, stories weren't matching up. >> police identified kelly campbell early on as a suspect. she used to work at loomis fargo, and she is a known acquaintance of david ghantt. fbi agents questioned campbell at her home, but she admits nothing. >> kelly had said that she hadn't stayed in touch with him since she left loomis. kelly had said she wasn't very close to him. and we had conflicting reports that said otherwise. we knew something was amiss, something was awry with kelly campbell. coming up, the fbi taps the phones of campbell and chambers and realizes that david ghantt's life is in immediate danger.

loomis fargo vault supervisor david ghantt has helped pull off the second largest cash robbery in united states history, $17 million. >> authorities have been looking for 27-year-old david scott ghantt, guard and driver here, whom the fbi now considers a suspect. >> but fbi agents are hot on the trail of ghantt's accomplices, steve chambers, his wife, michelle, and kelly campbell. and they have tracked ghantt to mexico. >> he's got 30 grand, which runs out quickly, because he's eating where he wants to eat and spending money the way he wants to, because he thinks $8 million is on its way. >> he's getting occasional cash

deliveries from a man he knows only as bruno. bruno's real name is michael mckinney, a friend of steven chambers. chambers made mckinney part of the heist gang to transport money to ghantt in mexico, and to get close enough to ghantt so he could kill him. the funds mckinney brings to mexico are usually between $5,000 and $8,000, much less than what ghantt expects. >> in between delivery, he would find himself having to eat grilled cheese sandwiches. he actually would be holed up in his hotel room for fear of getting killed, eating m&ms and listening to the eagles. david ghantt suspected there was a murder plot. all he knew was that kelly campbell wasn't visiting him. every time he called kelly campbell, some guy would come down that he was very uncomfortable and nervous around. and david ghantt became very concerned for his own safety and he started to become very secretive as to where he was located. >> on the wiretap, fbi agents

hear david ghantt pleading with kelly campbell to send more money. she says she will, but first she has to know where he is. >> and he says to her, cozumel, and we hear kelly ask him, cozu-who? and he says cozumel. and she says where is that? and the plan unhatches very quickly. we're picking up all these additional phone calls on how they're going to send someone out to kill him. >> realizing the same people ghantt put $17 million of trust in are going to kill him at own moment, the fbi tracks down and arrests david ghantt. >> he called out to me and said, please, tell me you're an fbi agent. david thought he was somebody that he wasn't, and david wanted to be somebody that he wasn't, but david was still david, a big dreamer, thought he could pull off one of the greatest heists in the history of the country, but couldn't. >> the following morning, the

fbi moves in and arrests the heist mastermind, steve chambers. they also arrest his wife, michelle, who has a surprise for the agents when they storm into her mansion. >> steve was already down on the ground being handcuffed by other agents, and michelle was still getting out of bed. at that time, michelle was naked, and that distraction actually caused kind of a danger for us, because right under her pillow, not steve's pillow, was a fully loaded .9-millimeter semiautomatic. >> also arrested, kelly campbell, the temptress of the plot, and more than 20 others, who helped chambers hide the money. >> the fbi did a very good job on this case. they prevented david ghantt from being killed. they were able to recover the vast majority of the money in a relatively short period of time. >> took us all week to actually go to the 20 boxes, open them up. what you'll see is just loaded with 20s like we had suspected. each box filled with 20s would hold anywhere between $600,000 and $800,000.

>> federal agents want to know why david ghantt would risk everything to steal so much money, all because of an unfulfilled love affair with kelly campbell. they got their answer after ghantt is arrested. during his flight from mexico to the united states. >> the question was, what was it about kelly? and i posed it to david. and he looked at me, and he said, you're not going to believe this, but all it took was just one kiss. and i kind of looked at him. he said, no, really, i've only kissed that woman one time, and then he hung his head down low and he said, turns out to be a pretty expensive kiss, don't you think? at that point, i couldn't help but smile, because he was exactly right. not only was that a $17 million kiss, but it was something that was going to cost him the next decade of his life locked up in prison.

two desperate gunmen dressed in bizarre masks and armed with ak-47s. >> a smalltown iowa bank robbed. >> the taller one was lingering in the doorway of the vault. i'd look over there once in a while, but it was like i didn't want to make eye contact. >> a violent chase on desolate gravel roads across two counties. >> i don't think any of us realized they were that eager to fire those weapons. >> officers shot. >> shots fired! >> round splintered, hit my arm. >> my thumb was just about blown off. >> i saw blood dripping from his
