A cashier at a Heathrow bureau de change is thought to have fled with £120,000 in foreign currency.

The man, in his twenties, was allegedly given the keys to Thomas Cook's safe in Terminal 5 after starting work only days earlier.

Colleagues are said to have alerted police when he did not return from lunch.

A police spokesman said: "It is believed a large quantity of foreign currency was stolen."
