Mums in cars snare thieves

-

ANGRY mums on a school run boxed in two suspected thieves with their cars after catching them stealing from a neighbour’s garden.

Tracey Lumley, 33, sprang into action when she saw a woman crying that she was being robbed as two men were loading lead on to a van.

Tracey parked in front of the van while other women boxed it in with their cars until police arrived outside Horrabridg­e Community Primary School in Devon.

Mum-of-four Tracey said: “I could see this lady quite shook up. I said I would block them in. They were stuck while we all told them what we thought of them.”

Two men, aged 31 and 28, from Birmingham, were arrested.
