Police are hunting three men in connection with an armed robbery in Warrington last month.

They've released CCTV images of the trio, who entered a convenience store on School Road in Orford at around 10pm on April 22.

Dressed in black, they threatened staff with bats before stealing cigarettes and fleeing the scene.

Detective Constable Neil Mooney, of Cheshire Police, said:

“This distressing incident has left a staff member extremely shaken and I want to make it clear that we are doing all we can to locate the offenders and bring them to justice.

“As part of our investigation we’ve now released the CCTV images of the men we are looking to identify.

“While the men have their faces covered, you may recognise their clothing or their build, and I would urge anyone who thinks that they know the identity of the suspects to get in touch.

“The same goes for anyone who witnessed anything suspicious, or anyone with any CCTV or dashcam footage which may our investigation.”
