Detectives have released CCTV images of the suspects who threatened the staff at a Leeds convenience shop with a handgun and a knife during an armed robbery in December last year. West Yorkshire police has appealed for information regarding the suspects.

Officers from Leeds District CID are continuing to carry out enquiries to identify the two males who robbed the Best-One convenience store, in Stanks Parade, at about 7.40pm on December 29 last year.


As per the police, the suspects arrived at the store on a silver motorbike, both with their faces covered by helmets. One was armed with a handgun, which was thought to be a replica, and the other suspect had a knife.

They threatened staff and stole cash and a quantity of cigarettes and tobacco before leaving the scene on the motorbike along Stanks Approach.

While their faces are covered, it is hoped someone may recognise the pair from their clothing and build and the silver bike.

Anyone with any information that could assist the investigation is asked to contact DC385 Pickup at Leeds District CID via 101 quoting crime reference 13210670390 or online via www.westyorkshire.police.uk/101livechat.
