Coral's bookmakers raided by baton-wielding robbers
Comments |
Robbers wearing stockings over their heads
threatened a bookmaker with a baton before running off.
The pair, both in their teens,
took cash from the till at just after 9pm in
Coral's bookmakers in Mill Hill, Deal, yesterday.
They had threatened the
cashier and forced the 20-year-old man from Deal to open the safe.
They struck the cashier with a baton but he was not seriously
injured.
The men ran out of the bookies
and up Mill Hill towards St Richard’s Road.
They are described as in their
late teens – one was of stocky build and wearing dark grey
tracksuit bottoms, a black padded jacket and blue jeans.
One of the men was wearing Nike
Air Max trainers. The other man’s footwear had red
stripes.
Police are speaking to
witnesses and studying CCTV.
Anyone with information is urged
to contact Detective Constable Ron Smith at Kent Police on 101 or
Kent Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
