 Someone's in Trouble - Bank Robbed - zippy
>>Hold up...

The biggest cash raid that springs to mind was in the early 2000s with the Cash Depot in Tonbridge. The crooks had taken the manager's family hostage. He must have been terrified and I understand that they are now living under changed identities in the Southern Hemisphere.

That's nasty!

Some good friends (or God-daughter's parents) had a Ford Sierra. He was a diesel fitter and purchased it from the scrap-yard where he worked and rebuilt it.

One night, in the early hours, he and the family were awoken by lights outside and a telephone call. It was the police and the family were told to come outside. The parents were searched as was the house.

It turns out that the previous evening a local sub-post office had been hit and the post-master done over very nastily with the butt of a shot gun.

The family's Sierra had been used in the raid and the police had found my friend's Sierra burnt out, luckily they had a water-tight alibi and the real crooks were eventually found and prosecuted.
