Armed Robbers In Hockey Mask And Sunglasses Target Bookies

Two men who tried to raid a bookmakers wearing a hockey mask and a pair of sunglasses are being sought by police.

The pair threatened staff this afternoon at the William Hill branch on Dumbarton Road, Scotstoun, Glasgow, with what appeared to be a firearm.

They entered the shop at around 1pm and demanded that workers hand over cash, but fled empty-handed a short time later.

Staff at the shop were said to be very shocked and upset by the incident.

One of the suspects wore a hooded jumper with a blue and white tartan hood and had his face covered with a white hockey mask. He also wore dark jeans, black trainers and a black jacket with white markings on the right sleeve and right chest.

His accomplice was about 5ft 10ins and wore a black beanie style hat, dark sunglasses, dark jogging trousers and a white hooded sweatshirt. He was also wearing dark or black-coloured gloves.

Detective Inspector Fil Capaldi, who is leading the investigation, said: "This was a brazen and desperate attempted armed robbery in a busy area of the city and thankfully no-one has been injured.

"I would appeal to anyone who was near the William Hill bookmakers on Dumbarton Road around the time of the robbery to get in touch as it is vital that we trace these men."

Anyone with any information should contact Drumchapel CID on 0141 532 3600 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
