Pair arrested after knifepoint robbery
Two people have been arrested in connection with an armed robbery involving a knife at a petrol station in Brockenhurst.
At around 3pm on bank holiday Monday, May 27, a man entered the Esso Service Station on Sway Road.
He managed to get behind the counter and demanded money from the cashier, showing her a knife. He then ran from the store with several hundred pounds.
A 37-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman were arrested in the London area early today.
They will now be questioned by Lyndhurst detectives about the robbery.
