A man from Ellesmere Port has been jailed after committing a robbery at a convenience store in the town whilst armed with a screwdriver.
Robert Forbes, of Sutton Way in Great Sutton, repeatedly demanded money from a woman working behind the tills shortly after the store opened on the morning of Tuesday, January 12.
Seeing that the 40-year-old had a screwdriver in his hand, the sales assistant ran into the store room and pressed a panic alarm.
Forbes then went behind the counter and used his screwdriver to gain access to the drawers inside the two tills.
