8:48am Saturday 20th October 2012 in News
POLICE say they have disrupted the operations of a criminal gang which was targeting the racing industry following the arrest of a local man.
They have urged trainers and people in the horse racing world to “review the security of their homes and businesses” following the arrest, and say they are searching for at least two other people.
A spokesman said: “We believe we have disrupted the intentions of these people to steal or rob.
“We ask for people to be vigilant, take sensible precautions and to report any suspicious activity to the local police.”
The investigation is continuing.
