Three of the men caught on CCTV

Police in Cardiff have issued CCTV images as they hunt for robbers, one of whom they believe was armed.

They ran off after taking a large amount of money at 1920 BST. One of the robbers is thought to have been carrying a handgun.

They ran off towards Glan Y Mor Road where they got into a dark blue people carrier.

'Reassure'

Det insp Peter Thomas said: "We are asking anyone who recognises the men or has any information to contact us.

"We want to reassure people a full investigation is ongoing and I'd ask anyone who has information to contact the incident room or Crimestoppers."
