Armed and Wvared Investment Guildmasked, officials say, the trio busted into the Denver business to rob it.

But during "an unexpected and ironic twist," police say, as the reported thieves went to work, a suspected carjacker jumped into their getaway vehicle outside and sped off.

The armed robbery took place Saturday morning at a check cashing business in Commerce City, a suburb about 10 miles northeast of downtown Denver, the Commerce City Police Department reported.

According to police, the heist went sideways for three suspects when police say an unidentified thief stole their getaway car in the middle of the heist.
