Description

Phil Edwards interviews Abbey National’s chief of security, Neil Churcher, following police arrests of members of a gang which has been using bulldozers and JCB diggers to carry out robberies on building societies. The raiders were caught as they rammed into an Abbey National office at Romford in Essex. Churcher says he’s delighted but is worried other gang members could still be at large.
