£10,000 Worth of Goods Stolen in Curry Rivel Burglary

A petrol station in Curry Rivel, UK, was robbed by three masked men, resulting in a loss of £3,000.

On January 15th, according to The County Gazette, a petrol station in Curry Rivel village, UK, was burglarized in the early hours of the morning. Three masked men stole items worth approximately £10,000, resulting in a loss of around £3,000. The entire incident was captured clearly on CCTV footage.

James Duder, the owner of the gas station, has stated that he plans to enhance security measures in order to prevent such crimes in the future, as this is the third theft that the business has experienced.

According to video footage, three thieves arrived at the store in a black Audi with fake license plates at 1:30 am on the 14th. Two individuals were responsible for prying open the store's door, while the other person prepared bags and boxes to hold the stolen items.

The stolen items included cigarettes worth £7,500, an e-cigarette worth £1,000, and scratch cards worth £1,000. The police arrived at the scene within 14 minutes of receiving the report, but the thief had already fled in the direction of Taunton.
