Both men wore white, latex gloves. The first male is described as being 5ft 8in tall, of slim to medium build and was wearing a grey hoodie, a black waist length jacket, blue jeans and white trainers.
The second male is described as being 5ft 8in tall, of slim to medium build and was wearing a black waist length jacket, black balaclava, blue jeans and white and dark coloured shoes.
