It took place at around 9.20pm on Thursday 2 January, at the store in Compton Square.

A man entered the store and demanded the shop worker give him money from the till.

When he was told there was no money, he attempted to hit the till before running away when more staff arrived.

No money was taken and no injuries were reported.
