ROBBERS struck as a security van pulled up outside a Gorse Hill bank today.
The latest incident in Cricklade Road is the third of its kind in three months.
It happened in front of the Lloyds TSB bank at about 1.30pm.
It is believed that two robbers pounced on a Group 4 Securicor employee as he made a delivery of money to the branch.
Witnesses say the worker was pushed to the ground, before the robbers made their escape with the money case.
Police scrambled the force helicopter to search the area.
