Greetings,

Just reading a fairly recent tabloid today and was surprised to find Alan Golder aka 'The Dinnertime Bandits' pic staring up at me. Then I read he is now 52 years old and they caught him overseas. I was just reading on my break at work and found that story.

He apparently fled to Europe, where investigators are suspecting him in a string of heists in Spain, France and the Czech Republic, adding European nobility to his targets. In late 2006, apparently police caught up with him in Antwerp, Belgium's famed diamond-cutting city. They apparently extradited him back to the States where he faces nearly 40 felony counts, in CT.

The article said he pleaded 'not guilty'.

Just thought I'd share.........

Cheers

Yes I posted a link I came across a little while back that said he had been captured. Impressive though you recognized him right off - I don't know that I would have...
