A French family was held captive over a crypto transfer.
Four masked men broke into a home in Vendin-le-Vieil, tied up the parents and their two children, and forced the father to hand over access codes to his crypto accounts.
Around €40,000 in cryptocurrency was reportedly stolen. The family was held for more than three hours before the attackers fled.
No arrests had been reported in the latest coverage. Investigators are also examining whether the father's work in crypto was the reason the family was targeted.
