Malcolm Ellis Coins Ltd. - all gold coins stolen. Is this old news?

[RDHC]

Just noticed this item on Google. I'm usually so far behind the curve as to be out of sight, so this is probably very old news. However, just in case it isn't . . . .

I now discover that it happened quite recently but it has already been reported on this forum, without much reaction, so everyone can safely ignore my first post on this matter.

There have been crimes (including Murder) committed against PM / Coin dealers.  

One of our members was robbed in London

Guiseppe Miceli was murdered in 2013

Very saddening.

I know it’s not really the point, however, they will be well insured.🤔

Presumably on the financial side. The stress and hassle and all the rest of it can't really be insured or compensated though and perhaps historic or numismatic examples will be lost ending up melted for eg. 

Fyi I  saw a report of it dated early September.

Any robbery, accident etc. is very stressful, life changing and insurance companies are a nightmare to deal with.
