Wiltshire Police are investigating the incident which occurred shortly after 10pm on Thursday 16 February at the busy petrol station on Southampton Road, Salisbury.

Two men, wearing dark coloured hooded tops, gloves and coverings over their faces, assaulted a member of staff. They then took approximately £200 from the till and several scratch cards and left the area.

The staff member sustained minor injuries which did not require hospital treatment but was very shaken by the incident.

The suspects are described as being approximately 6 foot in height and of medium build.

“This was a frightening experience for the victim and we are interested to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and who saw anything suspicious. It is often the case that the smallest piece of information can help lead to a prosecution.”

Anyone with information regarding the robbery or those responsible is asked to contact PC Weston at Salisbury CID on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously 0800 555 111.
