The window was damaged in the raid, which took place at about 10:00 GMT

Three men armed with a machete smashed through the window of a pawnbrokers' shop in Leeds, stealing jewellery before being driven from the scene.

Police said the men used a machete and other tools to break the glass at Ramdsens in Queen Street, Morley, at about 10:00 GMT.

Images on social media showed the men reaching through the broken glass to take items, before getting into a car.

The vehicle, a blue Ford EcoSport SUV, was found abandoned in Shipton Mews.

West Yorkshire Police said no one was injured and they are looking for four men in connection with the incident.

Anyone with information, or who has relevant phone or dashcam footage, is urged to contact them.
