(SL2 - Thursday, 26 January, 2012)

Police investigating an armed robbery at a shop in Farnham Royal have released a CCTV image of a man they would like to speak to in connection with the incident.

The incident happened at the Londis store, in Farnham Road, shortly after 3pm on 15 January.

Two men entered the store and threatened the staff with what are believed to be handguns.

They demanded that the till was opened and when a member of staff, a 45-year-old man, refused one of the offenders punched him in the head with a gun.

He then dragged him behind the counter of the shop while the second offender filled up a bag with bottles of alcohol.

Both offenders then left the store.
