Police are searching for a man who stole approximately NIS 80,000 from two employees of a Petah Tikva travel agency Sunday.
During the robbery, the man was unable to steal tens of thousands more shekels that scattered into the air.
The robbery took place at approximately 1:00 P.M., as the two workers were coming out of their office on their way to deposit the agency's earnings.
When the suspect grabbed the bag, the envelopes that contained the money flew in every direction. After managing to take hold of a few, the suspect entered his car and fled.
The employees were not injured during the incident.
