Police officers are not appealing for witnesses after the products were stolen on the M1 on November 10. 

The incident occurred between 7.45 and 8pm on November 10. 

During the heists, the driver and security guard were tied up, police have stated. 

In further detail, the police said the incident took place at junction 18 before the stolen lorry was driven to Eldon Close, in Crick. 

A statement read: “The truck was later found across the county border in Lutterworth, Leicestershire, where it is believed the offenders transferred the 48 pallets of Apple products into a third vehicle.

“Officers would like to speak to anyone who may have seen a number of vehicles on the slip road at Junction 18 between the stated times, which may have looked out of place, or who may have dash-cam footage of this area.

“They would also like to speak to anyone who may have been offered any Apple products for sale in unusual circumstances, or who knows of anyone who is selling such items at low-cost prices.”

It is unclear as to how many assailants were involved in the heist. 

This heist comes ahead of the crucial Christmas period for businesses. 

Police have now called for any observers to call police on 101 and quote the reference number 20000595599.

Anyone who has been offered Apple products under unusual circumstances have also been asked to speak to the police.
