The Loomis Fargo Bank Robbery was a robbery of $17.3 million in cash from the Charlotte, North Carolina, regional office vault of Loomis Fargo & Company on the evening of October 4, 1997, by Steve Chambers armored car driver and vault supervisor David Scott Ghantt. An FBI criminal investigation (which became international in scope) ultimately resulted in the arrest and conviction of eight people directly involved in the heist, as well as 16 others who had indirectly helped them, and the recovery of approximately 95% of the stolen money.〔http://charlotte.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A1825〕 This robbery was the second-largest cash robbery on U.S. soil at the time, as only seven months earlier in Jacksonville, Florida, on March 29, 1997, Phillip Noel Johnson had taken $18.8 million from the Loomis Fargo armored vehicle he was driving.〔("F.B.I. Finds Armored Car Cash" ''The New York Times'', September 19, 1997. )〕 ==Company== Although the history of the predecessor Wells Fargo & Company dates back to 1852, Loomis Fargo & Company was a recent creation, formed in 1997 by the consolidation of Wells Fargo Armored Service and Loomis Armored Inc.; the resulting corporation employed 8,500 people and provided armored transportation, cash handling services, and automatic teller machine maintenance.〔"Wells Fargo and Loomis forming armored car company", ''The New York Times'', July 16, 1996.〕〔http://www.loomis.us/about-loomis/Pages/loomis-history.aspx〕 Its Charlotte office would be the victim of Ghantt and his confederates later that year.
