Cracking a Mystery Safe

A mini-mart owner found a massive safe in the back of his store in Ann Arbor, Michigan, when he moved in. The building once housed a jewelry store and a bank.

The safe was locked, and the key was nowhere to be found.

So, the owner hired a towing company to break it open.

First they tried a blowtorch, then they tried to tear the safe open with a crane.

Slowly it began to come apart, and after six hours of labor the safe finally opened.

So what was inside? A million dollars cash? Gold? Diamonds?

Empty shelves!

The guys did find two small opals, valued at about $400. It was hardly the treasure trove that everyone had hoped to find.
