Gene Felder and Antonio Harvery were arrested this week for the 2010 robbery at the California State Fair.

SACRAMENTO-

From the beginning, the Aug. 21, 2010 robbery at the California State Fair was slick enough to be something out of the movie “The Inside Man.”

“Two men enter into the cash room of all places where large amounts of cash are being kept and they take over 200,000 dollars in cash and they’re able to walk away that night,” Officer Doug Morse of Sacramento PD.

For 27 months, nothing. Just $200,000 missing from food concessionaire Ovations.

The suspicion of an inside job was almost immediately dismissed on the night of the 2010 robbery.

“I don’t think it would be one of our ovations guys, but maybe, maybe they wanted the money,” Kent Hutchings of Ovations told FOX40 on August 21st, 2010.

Detectives, though, say it was an Ovations guy, 52-year-old Antonio Harvey and his buddy 34-year-old Gene Felder. Both were arrested by Sacramento officers on Friday for the crime.

How they were caught, though, is something out of a Hollywood plot twist.

During the 27 month investigation, Harvey actually called Sacramento detectives he had been taken hostage during the State Fair cash grab. It seems an attempt to throw cops off the money trail, lead straight to the interrogation chair.

“It did seem odd and that was one of the clues that police lead up to that lead to the arrest warrant,” Brian May of Cal Expo told FOX40.

Twenty-seven months, two arrests.  As for the cash, it’s still missing, perhaps an answer that will have to be left for the sequel.
