A French security van driver suspected of making off with 11.6 million
euros (17.2 million dollars) in cash has become a rising star on the
web.

Several Facebook groups have cropped up to discuss the heist allegedly
carried out by Tony Musulin, a 39-year-old employee of the Loomis
security firm who disappeared from the central city of Lyon on Thursday
morning.

Two co-workers who had briefly stepped out of the van to run an errand
returned to find that Musulin had disappeared. Three hours later the
vehicle was found empty in an area nearby.

Police suspect Musulin of staging the heist and a Europe-wide hunt has
been under way since Friday for the man who apparently fled with 49
sacks of bills picked up from the Bank of France in Lyon.

The "Tony Musulin for president" Facebook page features such
tongue-and-cheek comments as "he can certainly solve the crisis with
11.6 million" while members of the "Tony Musulin fan club" said he was a
"hero" for his "no guns, no violence" approach.

"The World is Yours: Tony Best Driver 2009" page is also drawing a
steady stream of comments describing the theft as "the heist of the
century".

Lyon prosecutors have said the inside job appears to be a first in
France.
