Knife-Wielding Robbers Target Portchester BP Garage
Do you recognise these men? Police want to speak to them after a robbery at the BP Garage on West Street, Portchester, late Tuesday night (8 June).
Knife Threat and Theft in Broad Daylight
Between 10.30pm and 10.40pm, two men stormed the garage. One brandished a knife and threatened staff while demanding cash. The other stood watch by the front door. They made off on foot towards The Crossways with money and tobacco.

The police are also probing a related shoplifting incident from the night before (7 June), where three men stole a large quantity of meat from the same garage. Officers believe the men in the images may hold vital clues.
