Re: car theft?
They are probably replicas but that is still a serious offence and they risk being shot by armed police (and rightly so)

Re: car theft?
Busman told me about this when he came home tonight. It apparently took place right under the nose of the police station!

Re: car theft?
Really is a bit too close for my liking that. The bit that puzzled me is that the police want information on a black ford focus and a silver audi? Do they not realise how popular those cars are, no chance of getting any information.

Apparently it's a distinctive black Ford Focus. It would help if they told us in what way it was distinctive!

Re: car theft?
It could be a ST or maybe a sporty version but there are about 3 sport models. Maybe the reg number would be helpful Mr Plod

Detectives said they would like to speak to anybody who saw the Focus, with distinctive alloy wheels, being driven off at speed along Manchester Road.

Re: car theft?
According to teletext the police have arrested a twenty year old and are still looking for another person. If they have arrested the right person, hope they throw the book at him. But i doubt they will, probably will just get a caution.
