At least 10 gangsters armed with Kalshnikov rifles held up two armoured security vans on a motorway outside Como and escaped with €10m (£8.5m) in gold and cash
In what Italian media described as a "paramilitary action"
robbers blocked in the Gruppo Battistolli security vans by sealing off both ends of a stretch of the A9 highway between Saronno and Turate with two abandoned lorries
The A9 connects Milan to the Swiss city of Chiasso
gang members opened fire on the vans and the security escort fired back but the occupants of one vehicle were forced out on to the roadside by a smoke bomb
Robbers broke open the vehicle with a shovel that was later found at the scene
Investigators also found at least 50 bullet casings although there were no injuries
The gang set one of the blockade trucks on fire and threw nails across the road to slow down police as they drove off towards Switzerland in three cars
Authorities said that three suspect vehicles
were found abandoned in a farmhouse near Turate
Security firm Battistolli would not confirm exactly how much had been stolen
"We can only say it was a mixed load made of different securities collected from banks and supermarkets," a Battistolli spokesperson told Italian news agency Ansa
"It's too early to estimate the total value."
