Detectives from Merseyside Police are appealing for information from the public following a robbery at an optician in Tuebrook. The incident occurred on Wednesday, May 1st, just before 9.30am at Tuebrook Eyecare on West Derby Road.
According to reports, a man entered the store and requested to try on designer sunglasses from a locked cabinet. The assistant complied and opened the cabinet for the man. However, instead of trying on just one or two pairs, the man took a total of seven glasses from the cabinet. The assistant, fearing violence, did not intervene as the offender left the store with the stolen eyewear.
