...drove an armored bank security van in Lyon, France. Then on Nov. 5, when two co-workers briefly left him alone to run an errand, he allegedly vanished with more than $17.2 million in unmarked bills. It only took police a few days to recover most of the stolen loot - nearly $14 million - in a storage unit in Lyon, and then on Monday, Musulin turned himself in to authorities in Monaco (without the remaining $3.8 million).
