Half a million pounds worth of aircraft parts fly out of airfield

Police have released CCTV of masked men they want to speak to after aircraft equipment worth hundreds of thousand of pounds was stolen from Ramsey in Cambridgeshire.

In a scene like something out of ‘Line Of Duty’ five people in a black Ford Transit van broke into the premises at Upwood Air Park off Ramsey Road at about 11.40pm on March 22 and made off with equipment worth around £500,000.

Detective Sergeant Dan Bramley who is investigating, said: “I would like to hear from anyone who recognises this van or these people.

“I would also like to hear from anyone who might’ve been in the area at the time, perhaps taking a late-night walk or drawing their curtains and may have seen this vehicle or anything suspicious. Perhaps you might have CCTV at your property that captured the vehicle.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Cambridgeshire Police.
