Armed raid at busy petrol station

Staff have been threatened by a masked man brandishing a fire arm in an armed robbery at a Northants petrol station.

The armed robber entered the petrol station shop at Asda in Phoenix Parkway, Corby, on Saturday afternoon and demanded cash.

He fled on foot, carrying a bag, along Courier Road and Whittle Road.

Police said staff were shaken but unhurt in the robbery and urged anyone who was at the "extremely busy" petrol station at the time to contact them.
