Thief grabs cash from member of staff at Normanby Post Office


A thief has made off with cash after targeting a Normanby newsagents.


A man went into McColl’s newsagents at around 1.15pm today and approached the Post Office counter.


Police say he asked for some change - before grabbing a handful of money and leaving the shop.


A spokeswoman for Cleveland Police said: “A man has gone into the shop, seemingly to change money at the Post Office. He has then made off with an unknown quantity of cash.”


The spokeswoman said that no weapons were thought to have been involved.


The Post Office only opened inside McColl’s in October last year, after the neighbouring shop closed.


Anyone with any information about the incident should call Cleveland Police on 101.
