Basle's Grand Royal Casino Robbery

Just weeks after a high profile poker tournament in Berlin, bandits have raided the Basle's Grand Royal casino. The Grand Casino, which describes itself as "the Swiss Las Vegas", is just 200 metres from the French border.

The Guardian Newspaper reports that the raid, which prosecutors said was a professional operation orchestrated with "brutal" efficiency, was carried out at 4am this morning at the city's Grand Casino by about 10 masked raiders armed with machine guns and pistols.

With nearly 360 slot machines, 15 gambling tables, four bars, two restaurants and a 'designer' hotel, the casino would have been an appealing target, say police.

The trigger happy gunmen got off with hundreds of thousands of euros.
