Police Appeal For Witnesses To Armed Robbery
Police have appealed for information following the robbery of a commercial premises in the Lisburn Road area of Belfast on Saturday, 8 August.
Shortly after 13:00, two men, one armed with a knife, entered the shop and demanded money.
It is believed that the men fled the scene in a silver-coloured Mondeo.
Detective Sergeant Dolores Black said: "The man with the knife is described as being approximately 5'8" tall, of medium build. Wearing a black hooded jacket, blue checked face scarf and blue jeans.
"He appeared to have a tanned complexion. He had short grey hair with some grey facial hair growth and spoke with a local accent."
"The second man is described as wearing a two toned hooded top grey/black in colour with blue tracksuit bottoms and white trainers.
"I would appeal to anyone who noticed any suspicious activity in the area or observed these men making off in the silver Mondeo car to contact Detectives at Musgrave on the non-emergency number 101.
"Or, if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111."
