GOOD RESPONSE IN ROBBERY HUNT

Police have received several calls from people who saw the Mercedes Sprinter van concerned in the robbery of a computer hardware company in Sybron Way, Crowborough, on January 29.

Local people said they saw it in the area on the day of the robbery.

Police earlier issued photographs of the van when it was being driven in Kent in December. They showed the numberplate KU03 DWY, which is now known to be false.
