RAF kidnap duo ‘part of larger gang’
THE two men who tried to kidnap an RAF serviceman outside his base were part of a larger team, police now believe.
Detectives say they are looking for more suspects beyond two Middle Eastern men who tried to pull the man inside their peoplecarrier. The victim had been jogging near RAF Marham, Norfolk, where Tornados used to bomb IS targets are based.
Detective Sergeant Paul Durham said: ‘While the victim only witnessed two attackers, there may have been more in the vehicle and given the nature of the attack, it is likely they were part of a larger team.’
A new witness also suggested the attackers may have staked out the area last Sunday, after reporting he was ‘nearly run off the road’ by a Ford Galaxy.
