West Yorkshire Police are investigating a ram raid burglary at a designer clothes shop in Leeds.
The suspects are believed to have used two vehicles to force their way into Hugo Boss store, in Vicar Lane, just after 8pm last night.
First, they used bolt croppers to cut the locks on steel bollards protecting the front of the store. One vehicle, a Nissan pick-up truck, was then reversed into the front of the store several times, breaking the display window.
The suspects filled large builder’s bags with clothing, before leaving the scene in the vehicles.
The silver Ford Fiesta, registration YH07EBU, was found abandoned in Aysgarth Drive, East End Park, a short time later and the black Nissan Navara, registration EX55KUN, was found in Lower Brunswick Street this morning.
The detective leading the investigation said it was "a planned and organised burglary".
Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
