Detectives say Yarm armed robbery was 'brazen'

"We know that the suspects left the scene in a silver coloured Audi A6 motor vehicle. This was found abandoned a short time later near to Yarm Cricket Club on Leven Road, Yarm.

“A dedicated team is making every effort to trace those responsible and we are following a number of leads.

“This was a brazen robbery at a busy time of day in a busy town high street. We know there were many people around at the time, both pedestrians and passing motorists.

“We have spoken to a number of witnesses already but would urge anyone who has not yet spoken to police and who saw anything suspicious in or around the High Street either in the hours before this took place or as the men left the scene to get in touch.

“You can call Cleveland Police on 101.”
