Masked robbers forced two Aldi workers to reopen the shop they had just closed before making off with cash in one of the staff member's cars.

The three raiders approached the workers at Netherton Aldi just after they had finished locking up at around 11.30pm on Tuesday.

The robbers assaulted the employees and forced them to open the doors before making off with 'a quantity' of cash in a white Ford Fiesta belonging to one of the workers.

Neither of the employees was seriously hurt.

The supermarket is on the corner of Saltwells Road and Halesowen Road and detectives are appealing for anyone witnesses to come forward.

Forensic experts have examined the store and officers are trawling CCTV in a bid to trace the crooks.

Anyone with information should call police on 101 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
