Fork-lift gang takes cash machine

A fork-lift tractor has been used to steal a cash machine from the front of a shop in Leicestershire.

The vehicle was driven into the store in High Street, Bottesford, in the early hours.

The cash machine was then loaded onto the back of a stolen black Toyota pickup which was later found abandoned off Belvoir Road, in Knipton.

Police have not confirmed how much money was in the machine but appealed for any witnesses to the raid.
