Armed robbers target shop in Bury
Police are appealing for information following an armed robbery in Bury.
Shortly before 11pm on Thursday 19 April 2018 two offenders armed with machetes parked close to One Stop Shop on Sunnybank Road.
They entered the shop and threatened staff, forcing them to hand over a quantity of cash from the safe and till.
They also stole cigarettes before running off.
It is believed that a grey-silver or light blue Fiat Punto they used to arrive at the shop was left nearby.
Detective Constable Gordon Milne of GMP’s Bury Division, said: “This was a distressing incident that left innocent staff members fearing for their safety.
“We would urge anyone who recognises the offenders, or has any information, to contact police immediately.”
