Robberies in Exeter

Police are currently investigating two incidents of robbery which happened in the St Thomas area of Exeter.

The first incident took place at the Dawn ‘til Dark Premier Store, on Princes Street East, at around 9pm on Monday 10 April. A man, dressed in grey hoody, black trousers with a concealed face, entered the store and demanded money from the till.

The second incident happened at the store on Saturday 3 June at around 9.45pm, again, a man dressed in a grey hoody entered the shop and demanded money. On both occasions, he was in possession of a small knife and left with cash from the till.

The suspect was dressed in black trousers and wore a grey hoody with a small black logo on the top left of the hoody. He was believed to be around 5ft 11ins tall and of a slim build. His face was concealed during the incidents.

Officers have carried out house-to-house enquiries and have trawled CCTV and it is believed that the suspect was seen walking down Queens Road towards Pinces Gardens around the time of both incidents.

Detectives think this male could be local to the area and are asking anyone who may live with somebody who matches the description of the suspect to get in touch, no matter how small they deem their information to be.
