Two masked robbers who threatened a female shop worker with an axe in a terrifying raid caught on camera have been jailed. Benjamin Allen, 20, and Cameron Fitzgerald, 19, were part of the gang that burst into the tiny store and held the woman hostage during the shocking 90-second raid.
The three masked men burst into the shop in Grimsby, Lincolnshire. They then attacked the worker in what a senior detective described as 'one of the most violent offences of its type' that he'd ever seen.
One man, wearing a grey hoodie and a blue surgical mask, pushed the woman back while holding an axe. But, despite the danger, the woman continued to struggle against her attackers - even after she was put in a head-lock and had a hatchet held close to her throat.
