Captured on CCTV: The moment Shogun gang ram-raided Dewsbury bank

The grey-coloured 4x4 was driven into the front of the Santander bank on Northgate on Tuesday evening. A slim built man in dark clothing and wearing a Balaclava was then seen leaving the bank empty handed.

He got into a red Seat Leon with three other men, also wearing dark clothing and balaclavas, waiting inside. The Leon then drove off along Northgate and out of sight of witnesses at the scene.

The Seat had been stolen in Leeds on 21 June and the Shogun stolen from the Earlsheaton area of Dewsbury earlier on Tuesday morning.

Nothing was stolen from the bank and there were no injuries, although three people were inside at the time.

Police are now appealing for witnesses.

A spokesman said: “There were numerous people in the area of the bank at the time of the incident, as well as several people in the Principles pub, next to the bank, who came onto the street after the ram raid took place.”

Witnesses are asked to call 01924 431012 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
