Gore Police are appealing for the public's help following a robbery early this morning at the Broughton Street Discounter.


Acting Senior Sergeant Brent Kingsland said Police were alerted about 6.15am after two men entered the store and demanded cash.


The men left the store with a sum of money and items and headed south on Broughton Street, possibly turning onto Pomona Street.



The store worker was fortunately unharmed during this incident, but was understandably shaken, Kingsland said.


The men are described as average height and build, wearing dark-coloured clothing and carrying a black bag.


Police are appealing to anyone who may have seen these two men in the area around 6.15am this morning (19 May) and then running from the store a short time later.



Anyone with information about this incident or the people involved should call the Police on 105 and quote event number 220519/7826.


Alternatively information anonymously through Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
