A shop keeper has been pushed to the ground and threatened with a sledge hammer during an armed robbery in Belfast.
Two men burst in to the petrol station in the York Street area just before 8 last night.
The pair jumped over the counter, opened the till and took a sum of money.
Another woman working in the shop at the time was left badly shaken as a result.
The suspects are described as being in their mid twenties and of medium build.
They made off on foot towards the New Lodge area of the city.
