Seven lorries containing chocolate worth about £500,000 have been stolen during a robbery in Lancashire.

Two security guards were threatened and tied up by a gang at the Great Bear Distribution Centre in Skelmersdale at 0130 BST on Sunday.

About five men, some wearing ski masks and carrying coshes, held the guards in a field five miles away until 0600 BST.

Seven trailers, each containing about £80,000 worth of Cadbury's goods including Easter eggs, were stolen.

Four have since been found empty.
