The hunt continued today for a gunman who robbed a town centre convenience store in Bognor.

The man threatened staff at Eddie's Corner Shop in London Road with a small black gun.

Police said the robber ran off after being handed several hundred pounds from the till.

The Sussex police helicopter and tracker dogs were used to search for the gunman, who was wearing a baseball cap with a hood pulled over it, a blue jacket and dark trousers.

A police spokesman said: "We are also studying CCTV footage from the shop and other locations in the town centre."

The robbery took place shortly before 8pm on Friday. Police have appealed for witnesses.
