Police are now trying to track down those involved and have appealed to the public. “As part of our investigation, we are keen to identify and speak with anyone who was in the area and witnessed the incident,” a force spokesman said.

“While we have spoken to a number of people already, there are some we believe have important information, but who had left the scene quite quickly. In particular, we would like to speak with a woman who instructed members of the public to call police and advised staff in one shop to lock their door.”

Anyone with information can call 101, quoting the reference 44230309215.
