Police have released CCTV footage of two men they are looking for in connection with an armed robbery on Tuesday (May 7).
The incident happened at Premier News in Kirby Drive at about 7.15am when two men approached the shop, with one standing by the door while the other entered armed with a hand gun.
A shot was fired inside the shop before both men left the scene empty-handed and ran towards Whitehaven.
Det Con Rebecca Kitts said: “The CCTV and pictures we have released may act as reminder to members of the public who were in the area and who may have seen the two men before the incident. Members of the public may also be able to help identify the two men from the footage and pictures. I would urge anyone who recognises the men to speak to the police, in confidence.”
