Police are investigating after a high-end clothing store was ram-raided by robbers in Leeds city centre.

A red Kia Creed was deliberately driven into the Belstaff store, in the Victoria Quarter, in Vicar Lane at about 20:40 GMT on Monday, while a second car - also a Kia Creed - waited nearby.

West Yorkshire Police said a number of people went into the shop and stole a large quantity of clothing.

Police are appealing to any witnesses, or anyone who has footage of the incident, to contact them.
