Arrests following knifepoint robbery
9:47am Thursday 12th April 2012 in North Wilts news
TWO men have been arrested following a robbery on Bank Holiday Monday.
Wiltshire Police say they are keeping an open mind about whether the incident at a newsagents in Chippenham is linked to two similar robberies in Corsham.
At about 4.50pm staff at the shop in Redlands were faced with a man wielding a knife who demanded cash from the till.
He got away with around £250. Two men on a motorbike were seen passing the shop shortly afterwards.
An 18-year-old of no fixed abode and a man of 19 from Devizes were later arrested and bailed for further inquiries.
