Police are searching for two men who robbed a groceries store in Pinelands Plaza last night.

Two staff and a customer were in the Pinelands Road shop just after 9 when two men in possession of screwdrivers entered the store.

The customer was assaulted and threatened by one of the men.

The other man then demanded money from staff and went behind the counter to steal cash from the till.

The men forced everyone to lay on the floor and stole some personal property before fleeing on foot in the direction of Netting Street.

One man is described as being about 17-years-old, Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander in appearance and approximately 170cm tall. He was wearing blue jeans, a grey hooded top, blue baseball cap and black sunglasses.
