		</div><p>Eight armed men carried out a sophisticated heist at Sao Paulo’s main international airport and managed to escape with some 750kg of precious metals, airport authorities have said.</p>
<p>GRU Airport, which holds the Guarulhos operation concession, said the thieves hauled away gold destined for Zurich and New York by using two cars that looked like police patrol vehicles.</p>
<p>They also dressed as officers, covered their faces and carried long weapons before making their getaway, according to security camera footage shown on Globo TV.</p>

<p>The television outlet said the vehicles were later abandoned in Jardim Pantanal, a neighbourhood located 12 miles from the airport.</p>
<p>The operator said there were no shootings or injuries during the assault.</p>
<p>But a police officer said an airport official and eight members of his extended family, including four minors, had been kidnapped for 12 hours.</p>
<p>They were expected to give evidence in the next few hours, he added.</p>
<p>Sao Paulo police said they had reinforced surveillance around the area and were searching for the stolen cargo.</p>
<p>GRU Airport said flights continue to operate normally.</p>
