Robbers dress up as policemen and successfully steal 220 lbs of cocaine from a medical laboratory in Milan, Italy.

Italian police tell Reuters that four thieves got away with about $12.5 million worth of drugs.

They posed as carabinieri, or Italian police, in order to gain entry to the laboratory. The robbers then asked two medics to escort them to the room containing the cocaine.

They tied up the medics with plastic tape and took the wrapped packages of cocaine.

Police say they could not provide details on how the thieves got out of the building with such a large amount of cocaine.
