Two people have been arrested after a raid on a nightclub in which thousands of pounds were stolen.

Raiders escaped with more than £30,000 from the dh1 nightclub in Durham City after tying up the manager at his home in Trimdon Grange and taking his keys.

The manager was attacked on Sunday night and raised the alarm after being tied up for eight hours.

Two local men were arrested in dawn raids this morning in the Framwellgate Moor area of the city.
