An armed robbery recently took place at a local residence.

The resident was confronted at gunpoint by 3 males. A track barrow was taken  and loaded into large white van with reflective chevrons on bottom of sides and back doors with a orange light on top.

The victim contacted Shafton Parish Council with the intention of informing the community at large.

Please be aware and stay alert. It’s not known if this might happen again, if at all, and police are currently still investigating.
