According to the Ndtv.com on January 5, thieves in Argentina dug a tunnel into a bank and stole from nearly 140 safe deposit boxes。

　　Authorities believe the burglars entered the bank and emptied the safe deposit boxes during the New Year's Eve weekend. The caper wasn't discovered until Monday morning。

　　The prosecutor said the thieves rented the neighboring building to the bank in June. The tunnel they dug included lighting, ventilation and reinforcement。

　　Officials could not tell how much was stolen, since box owners do not have to say what they have secured。

　　Many Argentineans started using safe deposit boxes instead of regular bank accounts following a 2001 financial crisis。

　　据国外网站"the Ndtv.com" 1月5日报道，阿根廷一伙盗贼挖了一条隧道，潜入一家银行，盗走将近140个银行保险箱里的物品。

　　阿根廷当局认为，盗窃犯是在新年前夕凿入银行，并利用周末清空这些保险箱，这起盗窃案直到周一银行营业时才被发现。

　　检察官表示，窃贼们去年6月在银行隔壁租了一栋楼，然后凿了一条通往银行的隧道，隧道经过加固，里面装有灯光和通风设备。

　　银行管理人员并未说明盗贼此次盗走物品的总价值是多少，因为客户不必告诉银行方面保险箱里放了什么。

　　2001年阿根廷发生金融危机后，许多人不再把钱存进银行，而是把它们放进银行保管箱里。
