Hazlemere bookies hit by armed robbers

Posted by Greg Burns on Feb 27, 09 10:23 AM in People

Armed robbers left a worker with minor injuries when they raided a bookmakers in Hazlemere.
At about 9.15pm on Wednesday three men entered Tote Bookmakers with what police believe was a gun and a baseball bat.
One man pointed the gun at workers and demanded they hand over cash while another man hit a member of staff with the baseball bat as he tried to get away.

The gang stole £1,000 in cash and a large amount in change which was carried away in a Quality Street tin.
A Thames Valley Police statement said: "Anyone who may have seen anything suspicious in the area at the time or who knows who may have committed the crime is asked to contact Det Con Katy Dachtler at High Wycombe police station on 0845 8 505 505. If you don't want to talk to police or give your name, call the Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111.
