	Northern Ireland bank robbers get $39 million-plus \| The San Diego Union-Tribune
		BELFAST, Northern Ireland – In one of the world's biggest robberies, thieves took the families of two top bankers hostage and forced the executives to help them steal more than $39 million from the vaults of a Belfast bank's main office, authorities said yesterday.
		Experts said Monday's raid on the Northern Bank cash center was the biggest robbery since 1987, when thieves made off with about $65 million in cash and other valuables from the Knightsbridge Safe Deposit Center in London.
		Kinkaid said the bank hadn't been able to provide an exact figure for the amount of stolen, partly because police shut down its offices for forensic examination, but he said it might exceed $39 million.
