'Huge' haul stolen in London heist

Detectives are continuing to determine the scale of a heist at a safety deposit centre as victims hope to learn whether their jewels and cash are among the “huge” haul stolen.

A gang of burglars escaped following the raid at Hatton Garden Safe Deposit company in London’s famous Hatton Garden jewellery quarter, over the Easter weekend, and officers from the Met’s Flying Squad are investigating after police were called yesterday morning.
