Police issue CCTV appeal following Drumbrae Post Office robbery

Police in Edinburgh investigating an armed robbery at a post office in Drumbrae earlier this year have released CCTV footage of two men they wish to trace as part of their enquiries.

A three-figure sum of cash was taken when a customer was robbed at knifepoint during the incident, which took place on Thursday, 20th February 2014 at the Duart Crescent store.

Those responsible then made off towards Dochart Drive.

Police are keen to speak with the two males pictured within the footage and anyone who can help trace them is asked to come forward. The CCTV images also show a red Vauxhall Corsa and officers are keen to locate this vehicle.

Detective Constable Richard Emerson said: “This has been a frightening experience for the customer as well as the staff in the post office.

“We are particularly interested in a red three-door Vauxhall Corsa, which we believe is relevant to our ongoing investigation.

“Anyone who can help us trace this vehicle or the men pictured within the CCTV footage is asked to contact police immediately.”

Those with information can contact Police Scotland on 101 or alternatively, the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111
