    U.S. 100 dollar bills stolen in Tokyo smash-and-grab

    The yen is down so badly someone stole US dollars from a foreign currency exchange stand in Tokyo’s Shinjuku district yesterday in a covert smash-and-grab done while the store’s shutter was rolled up.

    NHK says someone smashed a glass showcase and scurried off with about 10,000 USD in 100 dollar bills, along with some Euros, according to police.
