How did Roy stop the thieves?
Roy Trenton used to drive a taxi.
A short while ago, however,
he became a bus driver
and he has not regretted it.
He is finding his new work far more exciting.
When he was driving
along Catford Street recently,
he saw two thieves rush out of a shop
and run towards a waiting car.
One of them was carrying a bag full of money.
Roy acted quickly and drove the bus
straight at the thieves.
The one with the money got such a fright
that he dropped the bag.
As the thieves were trying to get away in their car,
Roy drove his bus into the back of it.
While the battered car was moving away,
Roy stopped his bus and telephoned the police.
The thieves' car was badly damaged and easy to recognize.
Shortly afterwards,
the police stopped the car and both men were arrested.
