A petrol station worker has been threatened with a gun during a robbery in Andover.

The thieves targeted the Shell garage on Weyhill Road at around 11pm on Sunday evening.

Three men were involved in the raid - one armed with a gun, one with a metal bar and the third staying in their blue Renault Clio.

The car pulled up into the forecourt and the robbers went into the shop and demanded the garage worker give them whatever was in the till.

Less than £100 was taken in the raid - and the cashier was left unharmed but shaken up.

Detective Sergeant Ian Craddock said: "This was a particularly nasty crime especially for the victim who was threatened with a firearm. We are especially interested to hear from anyone who was at the garage at the time, who may have seen the vehicle and its occupants.

"We also believe the vehicle may have been stolen. We would therefore like to know where it may have been used or kept for the past 11 days, and if anyone has information about those who have used it. The registration number on the vehicle at the time of the offence was KS03 OOY"
