BENGALURU -- In a daring daylight heist, the driver of a logistic agency on Wednesday fled with a van laden with ₹1.37 crore cash, collected from banks here, police said.

Dominic, hired by Logicash, an outsourcing agency, drove away the van with the cash when two other employees had gone to a bank in the heart of the city to collect money at around 1.30 pm, Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) M N Anucheth said.

"The driver, Dominic, who was hired by Logicash, fled in a money van which was carrying ₹1.37 crore collected from banks," he told PTI here.

The accompanying security personnel had gone to attend the nature's call when the driver fled the spot, he said.
