As I live in Kent I’ve been pretty up to date with the news about this robbery, and as of yet I haven’t posted any news about this so I thought I would just try and keep everybody up to date with it, with the latest news from the BBC Website!<\/p>\n
Robbers who stole up to \u00a350m from a Securitas depot in Kent left \u00a31.3m in one of their vehicles.<\/strong><\/p>\n
The abandoned Transit van also contained guns, balaclavas and body armour, police have revealed.<\/p>\n
In a series of armed raids on Sunday, police made a sixth arrest. The man, aged 49, was later released on bail.<\/p>\n
Officers leading the investigation said on Sunday the robbers were making mistakes because they were under pressure and the net was closing in.<\/p>\n
All those arrested have now been released on police bail.<\/p>\n
Earlier on Sunday, police said 14 cages – believed to have been used to transport the cash – were found at Detling, near Maidstone.<\/p>\n
1,000 calls<\/strong><\/p>\n
Assistant Chief Constable Adrian Leppard, of Kent Police, said he was very pleased with how the investigation was progressing.<\/p>\n
Mr Leppard said police had completed forensic examination at the cash depot in Tonbridge and had handed it back to Securitas.<\/p>\n
The company has now started its final count of the missing cash which should be completed by Monday.<\/p>\n
He said the arrest of the 49-year-old man was in connection with the discovery of the Transit van, which was spotted by a member of the public in the car park of the Ashford International Hotel.<\/p>\n
Police believe the money cages found near Maidstone had been dumped from the back of a white box van at 0930 GMT on Wednesday, just hours after the raid.<\/p>\n
Mr Leppard said it may be the same Renault lorry that the gang used to move the cash from the depot. Crucially, the lorry has not been located.<\/p>\n
He added that police had now received more than 1,000 calls with information.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
