Armed robbers 'ran on motorway'
Police say robbers who targeted a bank in Lancashire ran on to the M6 motorway to make their getaway.
The pair threatened staff at Lloyds TSB in Chapel Brow, Leyland, with a gun, just before closing time on Friday.
The robbers, whose faces were covered with black balaclavas, made their escape in a small silver car, but abandoned it at a subway under the M6.
They got in a second getaway car parked on the hard shoulder and are appealing to drivers.
