Ram-raid burglary at Banbury's in Tiverton

Police were called following reports of the alarms going off at the Banburys Store in Gold Street, Tiverton, at around 4.15am today (18 October).

It appears that a saloon-type car was used to force the doors to gain access to the store. People wearing balaclavas managed to steal vast quantities of perfume before fleeing the area in the same vehicle up Bampton Street.

Police are appealing for witnesses and would also like to hear from anyone who has come across any discarded items in the area including perfume and balaclavas, or who have been offered any perfume for sale.

Please call 101 or email 101@dc.police.uk quoting crime number CR/073806/16.
