The incident occurred at approximately 3:30 AM on Tuesday, February 25, 2025. Officers arrived at the scene to find significant structural damage to the storefront.

The entire raid lasted under three minutes before the suspects piled back into a second getaway vehicle and sped away, leaving the ram vehicle abandoned at the scene.
A detective heading the investigation commented: "This was a brazen and destructive raid. We are currently reviewing CCTV from the area and tracing the history of the vehicles involved. We believe at least six individuals were directly participating in the crime."
Police are urging anyone who may have witnessed suspicious vehicle movements in Corby or who has dashcam footage from the surrounding roads between 3:00 AM and 4:00 AM to contact them immediately on 101, referencing the Corby ram raid investigation.
