Detective Sergeant Ryan Barnes, investigating, said: “We are working to track down the offenders involved in this incident. If anyone has any information about them, or the blue Volvo involved, then please get in contact. It will have a broken back window, so will be quite distinctive.
“If a crime is taking place we advise members of the public to call us on 999, rather than intervene and risk being injured.”
If anyone has any information, please contact DS Barnes on 101 or via the force’s online reporting centre at www.bedfordshire.police.uk/report, quoting reference 40/17368/19.
