News Scuba-clad man robs Disney Springs restaurant, swims away

My guess, an inside job! The guy knew where the office was and knew where the cameras were located.

If all cast tell the same story at the location that’s what they may want the police to believe. But maybe a creature from the lake DB Cooper??

I wouldn't be surprised if the culprit is serving tables right now at Paddlefish.

I was a restaurant manager for many years. Most companies have security systems in place like safe codes that will open the door and alert the police, or hidden switches. You are told to do nothing more than that, even the company you work for will tell you your life isn't worth the $60k salary you are making and the probably less than $5k they are going to get away with.

I get that, but any time you turn your back, allow yourself to be tied up, or as we have seen in other burglaries forced into another room. You lose control of the situation and the results can be deadly. You should always attempt to run if you cant then fight back. Regardless of what a company tells you. In the end your life is more valuable than a job. But nothing happened to them thankfully, so it ended well.
Just my opinion based off of years of experience.
Now if they have a weapon it's a different conversation, with a lot more decisions to make.

Or he just watched for a while to understand the workings of the business, made good plans in preparation and were lucky no one intervened.

My sources tell me they are treating it as an inside job.

We used to have a major banks branch in the lobby of my work.
Very busy and convenient location.

It got robbed from time to time and most always it was an inside job.
Back then the FBI investigated bank robberies and the truth came out minutes into the investigation.

This is an inside job.

Does anyone know how deep the Disney Springs lake is? I was looking at Google maps today trying to figure out how you could pull this off and I think you’d have to swim past the docks and under Buena Vista drive to get out of the water off property and avoid all the cameras around Disney Springs, that would mean swimming under quite a bit of boat traffic though, whoever did this took some pretty big risks for a couple thousand dollars.

couple thousand dollars.

I don’t disagree with your point, if he actually did that.

But it was $10k - $20k , more than “a couple of thousand”.

If it was an inside job then the authorities should be able to find the culprit fairly easily. There are a finite number of employees. The staff who were in the office are in the clear. Let’s start by clearing all staff working that night. Then clear all females if it was a male. Then find out which employees were certified to scuba. Clear the managers. That should leave only a short list to investigate.
