Appeal: Men armed with knife and hammer rob Topps Tiles in Salford


Police are appealing for information after two men walked into a tile store on Salford retail park armed with a hammer and a knife and stole cash.

Just before 4.50pm on Wednesday 4 November 2015, two men armed with a kitchen knife and household hammer walked into Topps Tiles on Red Rose Retail Park, Regent Road and demanded money from staff.

They grabbed cash from the till and left in the direction of Coronation Street in Ordsall.

The offenders are described as being white, around 6ft tall, of slim build with one wearing an all grey tracksuit with the hood up and a black scarf covering his face.

The other wore an all black tracksuit with the hood up and scarf.

Detective Constable Andy Munden said: “The offenders targeted the store at rush hour and we believe someone may have seen them leave as they crossed Regent Road to a nearby housing estate.

“If you did witness anything, please call us on 0161 856 5351 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.”
