Jewellers hit by £1m raid was centre of armed robbery five years ago

The jewellery shop in Milton Keynes hit by £1 million raid in the early hours of Thursday was a centre of armed attack five years ago.

The Leslie Davis store in Centre: MK was raided overnight and £1 million worth of stock stolen. It's the same shop that was attacked in an armed robbery in December 2009 when blanks were fired and CS gas released.

In the latest raid, the offenders lit fires and set up road blocks to delay police arriving at the scene.
