Two men have been arrested after around £20,000 of stock was stolen from a phone shop.

Staff at the Vodafone shop on Marlborough High Street told Wiltshire Police they were threatened before the men left.

The men fled and were briefly pursued by officers on the A338 before they were arrested on suspicion of robbery near Hungerford.

Both are in custody, with police asking anyone with dashcam footage of the incident at around 16:00 GMT on Saturday to come forward.

The driver of the car was also arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving.
