Co-op robbery showing worrying trend

by Lib Dem team on 19 July, 2011

Police are working with staff at the Gatley Co-ops after a second robbery in recent weeks, and investigating CCTV.

The first was a ram-raid where cigarettes were stolen from the closed Gatley Green Co-op.

The latest happened at around 9.45 on Sunday evening – 17th July – at the other Church Riad Co-op, when the shop was open.  Three men threatened staff and stole money.

Keith, Pam and I are very concerned about this recent spike in robberies and attempted robberies in recent months, with both Gatley Co-ops and Alaska Chicken being victims, and Tesco having had an attempted break-in.  We are keeping in close contact with police.

Please let the police know if you have any information that might help in solving this crime.
