Police have issued a photograph of a lorry similar to the one which was stolen on the Deeside Industrial Estate, yesterday, Wednesday 17 February.
The lorry carrying Umbro sportswear was stolen at about 8am yesterday, as it made its way to the Umbro factory in Deeside.
The 37-year-old driver was threatened with a gun before being taken against his will.

The cab windows were smashed and the driver was forced into a black people carrier type vehicle.
The burnt out lorry, minus its load, was found in the St Helens area.
