Raiders strike at motorcycle shop
12:09pm Wednesday 8th October 2008


SIX men robbed a North Hampshire motorcycle shop and assaulted two people.
The men entered Des Helyar Motor Cycles, in Pamber Heath Road, Tadley, England on Tuesday and threatened two members of staff with weapons. Like to see those bums try that at a Harley Davidson motorcycle shop in America! Get their butts handed to them in a sling. You don't mess with hog riders!
The gang stole three motorcycles, a number of motorcycle helmets and the cash register before making off in a white Mercedes Sprinter van and a white Mercedes Luton van.
The 69-year-old and 42-year-old members of staff at the shop received head injuries during the robbery, which took place between 11.55am and 12.20pm, and were treated at Basingstoke hospital.
Detective Constable Pete Hanson, of Basingstoke CID, said: "This was a serious and violent robbery that left two members of staff requiring hospital treatment and we are determined to trace the people responsible.
"We want to hear from anyone with information about this incident, particularly anyone who saw either of the vans in the Tadley area on Tuesday."
The six men are all described as black, and were wearing hooded tops and with their faces covered by scarves. Bunch of pussies! At least they could have worn motorcycle helmets!
Anyone with information should contact Basingstoke CID, on 0845 0454545, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
