Red Bull Racing Factory Robbery

News emerged this morning of a robbery which took place in Milton Keynes last night. Reports suggest that as many as 60 trophies were stolen from the Red Bull Formula 1 team factory in Milton Keynes. Police officers were apparently called to the factory at 1.30 am last night after night guards reported the robbery.

Early reports suggest that a group of around six men used a silver 4×4 to smash through the factory entrance. A further dark coloured, black or dark blue Mercedes-Benz estate car was also used. Both cars are said to carry foreign numberplates, although no description of the six-man gang has currently been made available.

Night guards who are stationed at the factory were reportedly unhurt in the incident. Police are appealing for witnesses and we are told that further information will be available later on.
