A BANK in Bishop’s Waltham that was targeted by ram-raiders trying to make off with thousands of pounds in cash has now re-opened.
Lloyd’s Bank was up and running on Monday, a fortnight after it was damaged by a forklift truck which smashed its way into the branch.
The incident occurred at around 3am on Sunday, February 4.
The cash machine was removed, but dropped on the pavement and then abandoned surrounded by rubble and smashed glass throughout the day.
The truck was also abandoned as three men ran from the scene onto nearby Houchin Street.
It is not known when a cash machine will be re-installed to replace the one ripped out by thieves.
No arrests have yet been made.
