Warwickshire Police is appealing for witnesses after a man threatened customers as he robbed Boots in Kenilworth on Saturday.

The man is reported to have forced open the fragrance cabinet and stolen the contents in the Talisman Square shop, before threatening people that he would attack them with needles.

He then fled in a car which was waiting nearby.
