Police in the Netherlands arrested a gang of robbers who stole iPhones for half a million euros (35 million rubles). All five detainees were Romanians aged from 33 to 43 years, the Associated Press reports.

According to police, the robbers used a specially equipped minibus. They approached close to riding on the night road truck with iPhones, then one man climbed over the hood of the van, jumped in the truck and got inside. From there, it was shovel iPhones in the van.

The police managed to find the car of suspected criminals and stolen iPhones.

According to local media, the gang was involved in 17 similar offences committed throughout Europe in 2015 (only five of them committed in the Netherlands). They were carried out in a similar scenario; the thieves prefer trucks carrying expensive electronics.

In 2012, the government of Romania managed to capture a similar scene: then the robber also tried to get into the moving truck, jumping from the car of the accomplice.
