BURGLARS escaped with cigarettes in a raid at a petrol station.

The intruders smashed their way into Action Stations on Penistone Road in Waterloo just before 1am today.

They damaged the door to get in and then broke through a cabinet to reach the cigarettes.

The three raiders loaded their haul into a silver Golf TDi.

This was last seen speeding off towards Kirkburton.

The three burglars are African-Caribbean or Asian men in their late teens or early 20s.

They all wore dark clothes.
