Two Men Named in $1 Million Gold Heist
Suspects accused of snatching gold, jewelry from courthouse display in California
Police have named two suspects in a gold heist in California that netted more than $1 million a year ago.
The two men, both from the San Francisco Bay area, allegedly made off with more than $1.25 million in gold, jewelry and artifacts from a display case in the lobby of the Siskiyou County Courthouse during a February 2012 robbery.
Now, police say they've issued felony warrants for David Dean Johnson, 49, of El Cerrito and Scott Wayne Bailey, 51, of El Sobrante.
