Woman's car stolen by masked gang

A woman has had her car stolen by a gang wearing balaclavas as she waited at a road junction in Berkshire.

The 35-year-old was sat in her BMW M3 in Wokingham when the gang pulled alongside in an Audi estate.

A number of men were inside the car, which was on the wrong side of the road, police said.

One man approached the driver's window and demanded she get out of her car. He then drove her vehicle away at speed towards Bracknell, alongside the Audi.

The woman was not injured during the theft, which took place on the evening of 18 July, but police are appealing for witnesses.
