Around £50,000 worth of goods has been stolen from a Crawley phone shop, with police releasing a CCTV video of the robbery.

Two men forced their way into a stock room at O2 in The Marlets at around 11.50am on Wednesday last week (26th June).

Officers are now looking to trace the two men seen in the CCTV footage.

CID Supervisor at Sussex Police Oli Robinson said:

“We understand the men have their faces partially covered in the images, but we are appealing to those who may have seen the men that day, or recognise them from their local community.

“This was a brazen robbery committed in the middle of the day with other customers in the shop at the time.

“CCTV shows that the suspects were in the area of The Martlets some for some time before, and we believe have been in the store on prior occasions.”

If you recognise them, or have any information, you're asked to call 101, quoting log number 612 of 26/06.
