Staff threatened with knife during robbery at Bristol McColl's

Staff were threatened with a knife during a robbery in Sea Mills.

A man entered the McColl’s convenience store in Shirehampton Road at around 7.30pm on Monday January 20.

He threatened staff with a knife and made off with cash.

Avon and Somerset Constabulary is now releasing CCTV images of a man officers wish to speak to in connection with the investigation.

The man was described as wearing a black and white camouflage jacket, blue jeans, red/pink plimsolls, a dark grey hat, and dark grey gloves.

No injuries were reported.

A spokesperson for the force said: "The man left the store and headed in the direction of Sylvan Way and the playing fields and therefore he may live close by.

"We believe the man may have attempted the same offence on Friday 3 January at the same store, but he left before any offence was committed.
