smells funny this one.
"heavily secured armoury" and the only awareness the Police has was when a dog walker found one the next morning!?!??

 

[Paul at Fechan]

a shop without an alarm...

Had a similar thing happen when I was in the midlands and it turned out to be the shop owners son and his mates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
​Needless to say things went very sour and the shop is no more

We've had one in the midlands just recently 30+ guns went .

 

[perdix]

That's quite a haul Norma!

 

[norma 308]

Yes indeed new shop in a local town to me ,quite a lot of barrel chopping involved I'd expect ! All in the wrong hands .

Norma 308 : We've had one in the midlands just recently 30+ guns went

Where? When? Types and serial numbers?

Why are these crimes kept secret?

Only asking.

 

[norma 308]

No idea police investigating all takes time for the wheels to turn .too much crime and not enough staff !

 

[charadam]

My question really is - how do you know?

Not doubting you in any way, but I can find nothing recent on t'interweb.

 

[Apache]

I've been to Kelbrook a couple of dozen times and it always seemed well secured.

Nothing is completely impregnable.

 

[norma 308]

Like I said local to me know a few of the customers who frequented the shop .

no, but when they get broken into the police normally find out the normal way rather than by word of mouth.
Monitored Alarm that didn't go off?

​as I say, smells funny

The Detective interviewed was also well up on things. They were semi-automatic weapons, not up and over weapons!

 

[Si]

"police say the club was deliberately targeted"

No s**t Sherlock
