A gang of four masked raiders carried out a terrifying burglary at a luxury Cheshire home. Dressed all in the black and armed with an axe and knife, the men targeted a property on a quiet country lane in Alderley Edge.
Police said a male owner of the house was badly affected by the early morning raid. They are appealing for witnesses after gems, cash, and watches were stolen.
A number of watches were stolen including ones made by Patek Philppe, Audemar Piguet and Rolex. Other items of jewellery snatched included a diamond pendant and a diamond ring. About £2,000 in cash was also taken.
