Appeal after second money box raid in Hampton Hill

9:45am Tuesday 7th February 2012 in Richmond News By Paul Teed

Two men in hooded tops snatched a money box from a security guard in the second crime of its nature in less than a month.

The two men, described as white and wearing hoodies, carried out the raid outside Tesco Metro in High Street, Hampton Hill, at 11.55am on Thursday, February 2.

They were not thought to have been armed and fled in a black Renault.

It comes just weeks after robbers punched a G4S guard in the head outside HSBC, in London Road, Twickenham, on Thursday, January 5. The bandits fled with an empty cash box, running to a getaway car which sped down Holly Road.

Anyone with information should call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
