Manhunt for blade wielding robber

Redditch Editorial 18th Jun, 2015 Updated: 18th Oct, 2016   0

A MAN brandished a blade during a robbery at a Crabbs Cross convenience store.

The suspect, described as black and in his 30s, went into the Co-Op on Evesham Road at about 10am on Monday (June 15).

He carrried a bladed weapon and told staff to hand over nearly £2,000 worth of cash and gift vouchers and cigarettes.

He then left the shop through the fire exit and ran down an alleyway towards Jordans Close before getting in a white Ford Transit van which had red and blue lettering on the side.




The robber, who walked with a limp, was wearing a forest green hooded top, dark blue denim jeans, black gloves and a black mesh face covering.

Anyone who saw anything to do with the incident should call police on 101.
