Detectives are hunting armed robbers who held shop assistants at gunpoint during a raid on a Keighley shop.

Three Asian men wearing balaclavas carried out a robbery at Mogul Fashions store, in Bradford Street, Lawkholme, on Tuesday at 10.45am.

One of the men, carrying what appeared to be a handgun, and two other men carrying knives, threatened the two female members of staff.

They stole a small amount of jewellery before leaving the store and jumping into a green Rover 216 car parked outside. It is believed that a fourth man was waiting in the car.

The car then sped off in the direction of Bradford.

The car - which had been stolen on Monday evening from the Granville Road area of Bradford - was later recovered in Manningham.

No shots were fired and no-one was injured, but the two female members of staff were left suffering from shock.

Keighley police are appealing for anyone who witnessed the incident or who may have seen the car being driven around prior to the robbery to contact them on 01535 617083.
