Thieves used fork-lift trucks to smash their way into a building firm's storage facility and steal 110,000 worth of copper cable.
The gang struck at Specialist Plant Associates in Airfield Road, Hinwick, between Saturday lunchtime (March 7) and Monday morning.
A spokesman for Beds Police said the thieves would have needed a large lorry to escape with the haul which weighed several tonnes.
