TWO masked men carried out an armed raid at a jewellery store in Hagley this morning.

The pair wearing balaclavas struck at Greville Rossiter in Worcester Road at around 11.30am before escaping in a silver Mercedes.

West Mercia Constabulary spokesman Lynne Masters said: "It doesn't look like anybody was hurt, although I'm sure they would have been quite shaken."

One eye witness, who did not wish to be named, described the incident as "vicious". He added: "You just dont expect these kind of things to happen, especially not here."

Witnesses or people with information are urged to call 08457 444888 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
