Ram raid puts Ludlow Co-op out of action (but now back in action)

Sunday

The Co-op has reopened. Great news!


Saturday

Last night a 2005 Mini Countryman seems to have been used in a ram raid on the Co-op in Foldgate Lane. There has been significant damage to the front entrance and porch. It seems like the Co-op may be out of action for a while until repairs are made.

West Mercia Police are at the scene.

This is very bad news for the staff and the local community. The Co-op is an important store for the Sheet Road, Parys Road area of Ludlow. It is a community store where staff greet people with smiles and often know people by name. It has a fuel court and now Ludlow is left with just one intown petrol filling station.

The hard working staff and owners don’t deserve this. We can only hope that work on repairs begins quickly.

  1. Was that the claxon alarm I heard going off at 4.07 this morning? Seemed to be accompanied by some sort of explosions (??gunshots??)
