Police are appealing for information regarding a recent gun-point robbery at a south Essex convenience store.
According to local reports, the incident took place in Corringham Road, Stanford-le-Hope, at around 1.30pm on April 11. A man, hooded and wearing a face covering, entered the shop and produced what appeared to be a handgun.
