TWO masked raiders wielding a crowbar stole a "large amount" of cash in a raid on a Southampton convenience store.

The robbers walked into the Co-Op in Portsmouth Road, Sholing just before 9.30pm on December 22.

They attacked the tills using a crowbar and left with what police have described as a "large amount" of cash before getting into a dark coloured vehicle and fleeing the scene.

Two female members of staff who were on duty were not hurt and immediately called the police.

It is believed that both thieves were male and one wore a high-visibility vest over a grey hooded top with the other one wearing a dark tracksuit.

The other one was wearing a dark tracksuit.

Detective Constable Stephen Roman said: “Do you recognise the people in the CCTV images? Or did you see a dark coloured vehicle in the area around the time of the robbery?

“If so, you could have information that could help us with our investigation, so please get in touch.”

Anyone with information should contact Hampshire Constabulary on 101, quoting reference 44150449770.
