Detectives in Calderdale are appealing for information following a robbery on Friday evening (11/3).
The incident occurred around 11pm, when four suspects wearing face coverings, and armed with what is believed to be a knife and a hammer, entered a residential care home on Cooper Lane, Shelf. They made threats of violence to a female care-worker in her 20's before assaulting her, leaving her with facial injuries.
The suspects made off with cash, and the keys to a black Vauxhall Zafira, registration RV11 KKE which remains outstanding at this time.
Detective Constable Craig Pearson of Halifax CID said; "I would appeal to anyone who may have been in the area on Friday evening and may have seen anything or anyone acting suspicious to come forward.
"I would also ask anyone who may have seen the black Vauxhall Zafira on or since Friday evening, or who knows where it is now to get in touch.
"This has clearly been a frightening experience for the victim who has been left with significant facial injuries following the incident. Anyone who knows anything should speak to us on 101. Enquiries are continuing."
