Post Office worker robbed by mobile thief

A Post Office worker was threatened in Glasgow with a gun by a robber who fled on a mountain bike with a five-figure sum of cash.

The man targeted the store in Bearsden as the employee was closing up the premises on Spey Road on Monday.

He approached Stonedyke Post Office on the bike around 2:15pm and threatened the male member of staff with a gun. Police said he bundled money into a JD Sports drawstring bag before fleeing on the bike. The 47-year-old worker was not hurt, but was badly shaken.
