Two stores targeted in ATM ram raids

    Police are investigating two incidents in which shops were ram-raided in an attempt to remove ATM machines.

    The businesses, in Pudsey and Fairweather Green, were targeted at around midnight on Saturday 17 March.

    The McColls store on Bradford Road in Pudsey was closed on Sunday due to structural damage.

    West Yorkshire Police say that, after ramming the Londis on Thornton Road in Fairweather Green, it is believed three suspects left empty-handed.

    They have not been able to confirm whether both incidents are linked.
