Thieves take $1 million worth of gloves meant for Florida hospitals

Thieves have stolen over 6 million gloves, worth $1 million, meant for first responders at Florida hospitals.
Medgluv, a supplier of medical gloves to the national health care industry, said it received the shipment at its office in Coral Springs on Friday night. On Sunday night, surveillance video shows thieves backing a truck up to the shipping container and hauling off the personal protective equipment. It took only a few minutes.
Weve had hospitals asking for this product on a daily basis waiting for this to arrive, said Rick Grimes, Medgluvs vice president of sales and marketing. Its heartbreaking in so many different ways.
He did not elaborate on whether the company thought the theft was lucky timing or an inside job.

Sounds like an inside job to me.
