Daring Dawn Raid Shattered by Garden Elephant
Just after 4.25am on November 18, a white Audi screeched into the Martingate Co-Op car park. Two crooks jumped out and smashed a shop window with a quirky garden elephant statue before grabbing cigarettes from the till and making a quick getaway.
They fled the scene around 4.32am, heading off towards Bath Road.
