Seven Californians are indicted in a 2022 $100 million Brinks truck jewelry heist in Lebec, north of Los Angeles. They are charged for allegedly stealing gold, diamonds, rubies, emeralds and luxury watches.

Seven Southern California men on Tuesday were charged for their part in what federal prosecutors called the "largest jewelry heist in U.S history" after they robbed a Brinks truck of nearly $100 million gold and jewelry in Lebec in 2022.

An elaborate scheme to stalk and rob truck drivers hauling millions of dollars of jewelry and other high-end merchandise has resulted in criminal charges against seven alleged co-conspirators, the Justice Department announced Tuesday.
