POLICE are today hunting a gang of robbers who posed as police to steal three lorries and kidnap a security guard in a raid on a Felixstowe haulage yard.

The guard – who has not been named – was later released by the gang and dumped by a roadside in Essex.

The thieves got away with two consignments of Nike designer footwear and a load of boys' cotton trousers in a highly-organised and well-planned robbery.
