Unknown Person Mentioned

edit

I am a new user and this will be my first time posting. At the beginning of the Burglary section it says “A member of the local security company alerted the gang of the timing of the digging and when the alarms were off.” Was it discovered who this person was? Did they assist with the burglary in other ways? MeiReka (talk) 18:34, 21 September 2023 (UTC) MeiReka (talk) 10:15, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

It's not covered in the sources, AFAICR. - SchroCat (talk) 10:35, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Adress of the bank

edit

This article mentions at multiple occasions that the adress of the bank is 187 Baker Street. However, the signs on the facade of the bank (also visible in the picture of it in the article) clearly say that the adress is 185 Baker Street. As a (non-English) guest to this Wikipedia, I'm hestitant to change this. Perhaps others could verify this and change it in the article? Ikopdefiets (talk) 12:47, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Quite right: it is. I reran the searches again and see where I got the 187 from when I rewrote the article: the source is obviously wrong, several others give 185. (Most don't give any number at all: they refer to the bank and the road, omitting the number.) - SchroCat (talk) 15:14, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
