TWO masked men threatened shop staff with a fake gun during a robbery at a convenience store.

Staff at the Late Shop in Market Street, Tottington, were confronted by two men wielding a knife and gun at 10.30pm on Tuesday.

The men took the contents of the till and a bottle of brandy before running off in the direction of Bury.

One of them was white, 5ft 8in tall and of slim build. He spoke with a Manchester accent and was wearing a black bomber jacket and a black balaclava with red stitching around the eyes.
