BBC News:

Masked men in a black Subaru forced a van from mobile phone firm Vertu off a link road near junction 4a of the M3 in Farnborough, Hampshire, on Wednesday.

Four men from the car stole the phones. Police chased a Subaru which crashed and was abandoned in Slough, Berks.

Two Hertfordshire men, aged 26 and 27, were later arrested.

Vertu is to Nokia what Audi is to VW. This is dreadful news and I hope these devices are recovered.
