POLICE ARE ON the hunt for two gun-wielding bandits who robbed a St George minimart yesterday.
According to reports, the two masked men robbed the cashier of Ellerton Mart, Ellerton, making off with a sum of money, jewellery and cigarettes.
The incident ocurred around 11:30 a.m.
It comes less than a week after two armed men robbed the Beauty Exchange business at Wildey, St Michael.
One of the robbers, Dario Cummins, was fatally struck by a car minutes later after he and his accomplice made their getaway on foot along the Wildey Park, St Michael road.
Cummins, of Wotton, Christ Church, died on the spot and police recovered a ski mask, gun and money from the crime scene.
