Shot fired as armed robbers flee gunpoint raid on Chantry home
Three men are on the run after holding the occupants of a Chantry home at gunpoint last night.
Police were called at 8.30pm to reports of an incident in Manchester Road, where three men forced their way into a house and demanded money from the occupants, threatening them with a handgun.
The men then left the house, taking a quantity of money and making off in a dark BMW towards Tesco, pursued by the victim.
The two vehicles were then involved in a collision on Hawthorn Drive, where the victim reported the offenders fired the gun before driving off. No one was harmed.
A police cordon is currently in place in Hawthorn Drive at the scene of the collision and alleged gunfire, with the road closed at the junction with Bridgwater Road.
Any witnesses to this incident, or anyone with any information, is asked to contact Ipswich CID on 101 quoting reference 15452/16 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
