A gang of "brazen" LEGO thieves who stole nearly £5,000-worth of the plastic play bricks were caught after a car carrying the mammoth haul was spotted by police.
The three young crooks, all aged 22 and from London, went on a two-day spree targeting separate B&M stores amassing a booty totalling £4,650.
CCTV showed them in baseball caps going into the shops and filling reusable shopping bags before walking out past the tills.
