Robbers brandishing a gun and a knife held up a late-night store in East Sussex.

The two thieves threatened two workers at the OneStop shop in Blackman Avenue, Hastings, around 11pm on Saturday.

They grabbed cash, cigarettes and National Lottery scratchcards. A woman is thought to have been in the blue car with a foreign number plate in which they fled.

They are thought to have escaped with several hundred pounds. Anyone with information is asked to call Hastings CID on 0845 6070999.
