Two men have been charged with robbery after an off-licence was targeted in Hucknall.

The incident happened just after 6pm on Saturday 7 January, at a business in Watnall Road.

A man entered the store and approached the till with his hand in his pocket claiming that he had a knife. He then pushed the shopkeeper and took cash from the till, whilst a second man remained nearby the shop while the robbery took place.

Detective Sergeant Andrea Brown, who was investigating the incident, said: "Robbery has a massive impact on victims.

"This was a real team effort across different teams to locate the suspects quickly. Two men have now been charged in relation to this incident."
