April 25 (UPI) -- Officials in Brazil and Paraguay said gunmen carried out a raid on a Paraguayan private security firm and could have taken millions of dollars after a two-hour shootout with police.
Media outlets in Paraguay are calling the early-Monday heist in the Ciudad del Este border city the "assault of the century." Security forces killed three gunmen in the shootout and arrested seven others, two of whom were injured. One police officer died.
