It is the second ram raid incident on a Doncaster store in recent days.

Last week, police were called to The Tasting Note, a drinks store in Bawtry Market Place, after a vehicle crashed into the front of the premises.

A hooded gang made off with numerous bottles of alcohol in the raid before fleeing in their getaway car towards Tickhill.

Police are also appealing for information on that incident and anyone with information can get in touch.
