Two robbers posing as policemen tied up a member of staff at a city centre Brighton money exchange before stealing a “large amount” of cash this morning
The thieves entered Dapa Forex in Western Road at about 10.10am claiming to be plain-clothed police officers.
They then tied up a male member of staff and took the cash. The staff member was not injured and raised the alarm after the offenders left.
Police have now launched a witness appeal in a bid to find the men, on of whom is believed to be in his 20s and the other in his 40s.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Sussex Police on 0845 60 70 999 quoting serial 464 of 21/05.
