A father and his teenage son were part of the gang jailed yesterday

A gang led police on a high-speed car and helicopter chase after a terrifying raid on a Lanarkshire house.

They carried out the daylight robbery at a house in Bellshill, stealing gold worth £10,000 and £1,000 in cash.Police were alerted when neighbours spotted a black BMW driving past the house in March last year, then three men running away from the property with a bag, and making off in the motor. A police helicopter then joined the chase and the motor eventually stopped in the town's Burnside Lane and five men fled the scene in different directions.

They were sentenced at Hamilton Sheriff Court yesterday after pleading guilty to the Bellshill raid in December.
