It was going to an event at the Pasadena Convention Center just northeast of Los Angeles, she said.
“According to the information the customers provided to us before they shipped their items, the total value of the missing items is less than $10 million,” Brink’s said in a statement. “We are working with law enforcement, and we will fully reimburse our customers for the value of their assets that were stolen, in accordance with the terms of our contract.”Laura Eimiller, spokeswoman for the FBI in Los Angeles, said the robbery was in the desert city of Lancaster in northern L.A.
