Robbers wearing rubber face masks and brandishing a baseball bat have raided a video store.

Two men threatened staff with the bat at Blockbuster Video Express, in St Martins Street, Wallingford, at about 8.45pm on Sunday.

They stole cash from the till, although it is not known how much.

Detectives believe the duo were wearing rubber face masks and dark clothing.

One was about 5ft 7in tall and was wearing purple gloves and white trainers and the second was about 6ft 3in tall.

Det Con Dave Edwards said: “One of the offenders prodded the member of staff, a 34-year-old man, with the baseball bat and made him open the till. They then ran out of the back of the building into the car park.

“I appeal to anyone was in Wallingford on Sunday evening and saw two people acting suspiciously to contact police immediately.”
