ARMED raiders burst into the Barnt Green Inn and escaped with a quantity of cash after punching one of the employees.

Three men, armed with a knife, got in via the back of the premises and demanded cash from the safe.

As well as the money a large tan brown leather Michael Kors handbag with gold zips, a navy blue Cath Kidston purse with ivory coloured sausage dogs on, and a gold iPhone 8+ were also taken.




One of the men punched a member of staff before the trio headed towards the car park where a fourth man was waiting in a grey Ford Focus ST.

The car then left towards Cofton Hackett.
