By Neil Speight 7th Dec 2019

POLICE are appealing for witnesses after a cash from a security box was stolen in Chafford Hundred yesterday (Friday 6 December).

A security guard from G4S was approached from behind while collecting cash from the Tesco Express in Fleming Road just after 10.40am. A five-figure sum of cash was stolen.

The driver, a man in his 50s, was shaken and received minor injuries.

The suspect was a white man who was wearing a balaclava and made off in a blue Fiat 500 which has since been recovered by officers.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Serious and Organised Crime Team on 101 quoting incident 381 of 6 December, or you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
