Thanks to swift police work, the Hertsmere CID quickly arrested two suspects. Ronnie Bates, 19, from Aston Way, Potters Bar, was charged with robbery and cannabis possession. A 17-year-old boy, whose name is withheld for legal reasons, faces the same charges.
Both remain in custody and are set to appear in court today, Friday, 27 February.
