Two men pounced on the driver of a G4S van at Tesco Express in Stourbridge Road at 2pm yesterday.
They snatched a cash box he was carrying before fleeing in a blue Mercedes car, which was later found in nearby Roden Avenue. The security guard was not hurt.
A G4S spokesman said: "We can confirm that the crew of one of our vehicles was attacked during a violent incident in Kidderminster on Monday. Fortunately no one sustained any injures as a result of the incident."
Police appealed for witnesses to contact them on 101.
