Police carry out raids in cash heist hunt

DETECTIVES investigating the multimillion pound Securitas robbery were last night involved in armed raids across England where the gang carried out their audacious heist.

As the net closed in on the gangsters, Kent Police said “a number” of search warrants had been executed, although the force refused to reveal if any further arrests had been made.

With police activity intensifying, armed officers apparently shot out the wheels of a car and arrested two men on a seafront road near Whitstable on the north Kent coast.
