A man who was previously jailed for an axe robbery is wanted on recall to prison.
Jamie Goffett pulled a small axe from his pocket, threatened staff, smashed the weapon against a till counter in the Co-op and demanded cash from staff. A store worker opened a till, put £100 into the bag and handed it to Goffett, who then fled the scene on foot.
The 33-year-old had shopped in the store just an hour before. The incident happened back in 2019 on January 24 at the Co-op on The Ridgeway in the Murdishaw area of Runcorn.

Goffett was jailed for five years after he pleaded guilty to the robbery and a charge of possessing an offensive weapon in a public place. He claimed to have been under the influence of cocaine and alcohol at the time of the robbery.
Now, Goffett, from West Derby, is wanted by police for breach of his licence conditions following his release from prison after serving a sentence for robbery. He is described as 6ft tall, with a slim build, blue eyes and short brown hair.
The 33-year-old has links to Croxteth, Pontefract and South Kirby in West Yorkshire.
