Police stop a tunnelling gang targeting jewellery shops in London after the men use drilling to breach premises. The Daily Express reports the group mainly targets jewellers and relies on tunnelling techniques to gain access, while the London Evening Standard describes the gang drilling holes to bypass security systems.
According to both outlets, the offences involve a pattern of attempted break-ins using tunnelling methods rather than conventional entry. The Daily Express says the men then plead guilty, indicating the case proceeds through the court process. The Evening Standard focuses more on the moment police catch the suspects during the attempt and emphasizes the brazen approach across multiple London jewellery locations.
Together, the reports describe how the operation is disrupted by police intervention and how the technique used is meant to circumvent shop security, with differing emphasis between the courtroom outcome and the arrest-attempt account.
