Police appeal after robbery in Almondbury

    Detectives in Huddersfield are appealing for information following a robbery at a shop in Almondbury yesterday, 1 May.

    Police were called at around 06.30am to a report that two males were entering the rear entrance of commercial premises on Fearnside Avenue.

    The suspects made threats towards the staff inside and they took money from the store.

    Both males fled the scene through the same door at the rear of the shop.

    The first suspect is described as a black male, around 35-years-old, 6ft and with a stocky build. He was wearing a dark coloured top and dark tracksuit bottoms.

    The second suspect is described as a black male, also 6ft tall and of medium build. He was similarly wearing dark clothing.
