Three men forced their way into a jewellery store in Beaconsfield on Tuesday morning wielding baseball bats and a meat cleaver at staff before making off with £200,000 worth of items.

The incident occurred at around 10.15am on 8th March at Elite, on The Highway. Fortunately, no one was injured.

The three armed robbers fled the area in a grey Audi, with the partial registration of GK15, heading in the direction of Burkes Road.

Thames Valley Police officers located the discarded jewellery at a bus stop on the A40, at the end of Burkes Road a short time later.

Investigating officer, Detective Constable Mark Banham, based at Amersham police station said:

“We are appealing for witnesses at two places in relation to this incident.

“Firstly, at the jewellery store and then also anyone that witnessed the offenders discarding the jewellery at the bus stop a short time later.

“I am particularly keen to speak to anyone that has dash-cam footage from Burkes Road and was in the area between 10.15am and 10.30am today.

“If you have any information, please call 101 or make a report online quoting reference number 43220102266.

“Alternatively, for 100% anonymity, you can also call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
