RAMRAIDERS fled empty-handed after an attempted burglary at a Prestwich computer shop.

However, they left £500 damage in their wake when the would-be thieves drove a stolen Ford Granada car into the security shutters at Computer Bargains in Bury Old Road.

The steel shutters held fast and the ram raiders were forced to flee in the Granada.

The damage was only discovered shortly after 8am on Saturday (Nov 24).
