"If they’re truly going for the Ring Cycle, that means. . . That means we have two chances left to catch them, and god damn it, I’m gonna do it."

Vincent Delacroix, Army of Thieves

Vincent Delacroix was an Interpol agent who hunted down Gwendoline's heist crew. He had a limp caused by a bullet wound he received from Brad Cage prior to the events of Army of Thieves. Delacroix was portrayed by Jonathan Cohen.

Biography[]

Delacroix worked as an agent for Interpol. During one of Gwendoline's heist crew's bank robberies, Delacroix chased them down only to be shot by Brad Cage in the upper thigh. This injury would continue to plague him for years while he hunted these criminals. The ones he'd identified were Brad, Gwendoline Starr, Korina Dominguez, and their previous safecracker, who was the only one who was captured.

Interpol investigates the Rheingold

Shortly after Las Vegas was struck with a zombie plague, Gwendoline's team made a new move: They robbed the Rheingold safe kept at Premiere Credit des Batignolles in Paris. While his partner, Beatrix, was more interested in jobs related to the zombie apocalypse, Delacroix was focused on catching Brad and Gwen. He found them on camera leaving the scene, and knew that they'd likely continue their heists from the Rheingold to the other Ring Cycle safes designed by Hans Wagner. Their next target would be the Valkyrie. Bly Tanaka was having the Ring Cycle safes moved to Geneva, so Delacroix knew they'd have to act fast. The Valkyrie heist had to be the next day.

Interpol storms NPIB

Delacroix waited with his team at the NPIB Prague branch that housed the Valkyrie, but got anxious and entered the branch, believing the heist team must already be inside. As it turned out, the bank had traded their safe to a more prestigious NPIB Prague branch. He rushed to the larger branch, but was too late. Local police gave chase, but everyone escaped. Delacroix took his team to the final location, Bly's Casino in St. Moritz. They managed to tune into Gwen's radio signals and learned that they planned to go for the Siegfried during the shift change at the Bly at 5:00 A.M.

Beatrix suggested working with the casino, but if the casino got spooked and moved the time of the transfer, Gwen would lose her reason to put herself in Interpol's path, so he refused. The time came, and Interpol entered the casino, only to find that Gwen's team had alerted the casino of the threat themselves, and the casino had indeed moved up the time of transfer. The news hit Delacroix hard, but they went back outside and caught Korina out on the street. Beatrix convinced her to sell out Gwen and Sebastian, and they headed toward the location of Gwen's exit strategy.

Along the way they found Brad Cage and Rolph tethered to the Siegfried's truck on the side of the road and they arrested them. While the rest of the team took care of that, Delacroix hurried ahead to cut off Gwen, which he just barely managed to do. He and Gwen entered into a standoff, each pointing their gun at the other. Gwen offered Delacroix a bag of money, but he refused. Realizing she had no way out of it she agreed to surrender if Sebastian was let free.

Delacroix refused, but Gwen insisted that she'd shoot him, and pointed out that she was the one he wanted. It was true, and letting Sebastian go was Delacroix's best scenario, so he told Sebastian that he'd never seen him. Sebastian drove the boat away as Delacroix arrested Gwendoline, securing two of the three bags of stolen money - the ones that had yet to be loaded onto the boat.[1]

Abilities[]

  • Detection: Working as a high-ranking Interpol agent, Delacroix led the team that hunted Gwendoline's heist crew. While his lack of a level head got the better of him on more than one occasion, he was able to lean on his team when necessary, and with them he caught some of Interpol's most wanted criminals, including Brad Cage, Gwendoline Starr, Korina Dominguez, and Rolph.
  • Leadership: Delacroix was a skilled leader leading a team of Interpol agents. While he occasionally allowed himself to get locked into his own rigid notions, he did lead a tight mission.
    • Plan-making: Delacroix enacted two plans to catch Gwendoline's heist crew, and while the first failed, this was only because of out-of-date records. Gwen did outsmart Delacroix's second plan, but it was still an effective one that ended up working due to a slip-up from Korina Dominguez.
  • Multilingualism: Delacroix spoke fluent French and English.

Equipment[]

  • Interpol badge: Delacroix used his Interpol badge to identify himself as an agent when necessary for his duties.
  • Glock: Delacroix carried an Interpol-issued pistol during his duties as an agent.
