Link: BBC NEWS | England | Hampshire | £3m mobile phone raid near M-way

Masked men have stolen £3m worth of deluxe mobile phones which sell for £2,500 each after forcing a van off a link road to the M3 in Hampshire.

A van from mobile phone firm Vertu was targeted near junction 4a of the M3 in Farnborough on Wednesday.

If someone offers you a Vertu phone for cheap in a pub car park, I’m sure Hampshire Police would be grateful for a call. Although they’ve made a couple of arrests, it appears the phones are still out there on the missing list.
