A Cabot Circus luxury clothes shop has been ram-raided for the second time in three weeks.

A black Volkswagen car was reversed into Garment Quarter on Penn Street, on the edge of Cabot Circus, at 3.15am on Wednesday.

Two men entered the shop through the smashed window and stole a large quantity of women’s Versace clothing.
