ROBBERS held up a Summertown bank this morning.

Two men forced the manager of Lloyds TSB to hand over cash at knifepoint as he opened the branch at around 8.40am.

It is believed they made off in a dark-coloured Volkswagen Golf driven by an accomplice.

When the police arrived at the bank the manager was locked in a secure area. He was in a state of shock but was unharmed.

DI Simon Morton said: “It would appear there was one black male and one white male.

”If anyone has seen anything please ring us.”

Anyone with any information can contact the police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
