Police want to trace two men after an armed robbery at a sub post office in Coventry.

One man entered the store on Birmingham Road at about 1300 BST Friday and demanded cash from the shop assistant while another offender waited outside.

Police said a handgun was seen by an assistant but no shots were fired.

Two members of staff were in the store at the time along with one customer and no-one was injured. The men escaped with a large quantity of cash.

The man who entered the store is described as white, of slim build, aged in his 20s and wearing a black waterproof jacket with the hood up and a baseball cap underneath.

The second man is described as white and was wearing a baseball cap with a scarf around his face.

Anyone who witnessed the robbery or anyone with information is urged to contact police.
