According to Newburytoday, a safe was stolen in a ram raid on the Coin & Stamp Centre located on Hungerford High Street on 31 December 2023. The incident, which targeted a coin and stamp shop, was carried out using a vehicle to force entry—a tactic increasingly used in commercial burglaries across the United Kingdom.
Ram raids, in which offenders use vehicles to breach security barriers and gain rapid access to premises, pose significant risks to staff safety and business operations. Businesses dealing in high-value items such as coins and stamps remain particularly vulnerable to this form of attack. Shop owners and managers should review security measures including reinforced entry points, surveillance systems, and emergency protocols to deter and detect such incidents.
