Police are calling for witnesses after robbers threatened a cash-in-transit driver with a baseball bat on Thursday in Fallowfield.

It happened on Wynnstay Grove, just off Wilmslow Road. According to reports, they raised the baseball bat to the driver and demanded he open the cash box. After telling them he could not open it, they took the cash box and ran away.
