    Wow. That’s fast work by the Police (unless there’s been a tip off or something.) If they have got the right people, that’s an astonishing result. Well done to all.

    This reminded of last October’s news about an 84-year old man who foiled a similar robbery at a London jewellers by pulling off the thief’s balaclava:
