n1ckh Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Me to Andy The b******s should be strung up by there toes, not just burgled but trashed the place aswell
Chock Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Damn. That's my local site. Shop had just been remodeled too with a different counter and such. Will keep an eye out for local sales of stuff since it is near me. Also shared it with my friends list on Facebook, most of whom are in Stockport, so plenty of eyes on the lookout in the town where the robbery took place. n1ckh 1
straffham Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Just checked my local site but already been posted there too. (Alpha55)
n1ckh Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Thanks for this guys So you know them fairly well then chock, I reckon they cased the shop as there's some specific weaponry they took Its good to hear its being spread around straffham, fair play to everyone spreading the word
Chock Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Yup, just been talking about this, and my ex missus said something interesting: 'I didn't even know there was a shop there'. Which is a good point, because the entrance to Trojan is basically concealed around a corner from the entrance gate to the mill site, so there is little chance that Joe Bloggs would know there was a retail site there at all without having entered the shop itself at some point. Thus I suspect it pretty much has to be someone who's been there, and if I had to guess, I'd go for it being a disgruntled ex-employee either having done it, or having mentioned it to someone, who has then done it. Ben (Trojan's boss) is a really sound bloke, but as is often the case with people who are decent, that does not mean they are a soft touch, and I certainly would not like to be on the wrong side of him. I'm willing to bet that he could pull in a few 'favours' lol. It's worth noting too, that there are quite a few Police guys who go to Trojan to skirmish, so they're going to be on the lookout too. Not a betting man myself, but I'd put money on the perpetrators being caught.
n1ckh Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 For the coppers, its a good training aid for them, 'shoot not to kill' As the posters during WW2 said ' the walls have ears' I wouldn't be surprised its an ex employee or someone they know
