Police are searching for two men involved in a attempted robbery.

Hertfordshire Constabulary has released CCTV images of two people they would like to speak with after the incident on Tuesday.

Between 10.53pm and 11.05pm two offenders went into the Co-op on St Albans Road and approached a member of staff, grabbed them by the throat and demanded money.

Other staff members came to assist and the two offenders ran off. No items were taken.

Detective Constable Tanzeem Siddiqui is investigating and said: “I am keen to speak with the two people pictured as they may be able to assist with my inquiry.

“Whilst it is difficult to see their faces, I would ask anyone who recognises their clothing or who can identify them to please contact me.”
