A Bristol Gang : Episode 551

A gang of armed robbers terrorised Bristol for more than a year, targeting banks, building societies and post offices with shotguns and other weapons.

But how did they operate, and how did police finally bring them down? In this episode, I look at the robberies, the victims and the remarkable covert operation that eventually led to the gang's arrest and imprisonment - it is quite a story.

I release brand new episodes of the UK True Crime Podcast every Tuesday and Friday, so please do join me for the next story on Tuesday.
