BUSINESS owners in Radcliffe have spoken of their fear of leaving their shop doors open or letting staff work alone after a terrifying robbery sent shockwaves through the town.
On a quiet Sunday afternoon a man armed with a meat cleaver burst into Beth's Cafe & Sandwich Bar on Blackburn Street and threatened a member of staff before leaving with the till.
Police investigating the incident on November 12 have urged anyone with information to come forward.
The robbery has left staff at Beth's Cafe & Sandwich Bar 'traumatised' and other businesses in a state of shock.
At Pearlywinks Craft Supplies, also on Blackburn Street, a sign has been placed on the door that reads: "Due to recent events in the area please knock to come in. Door locked, we are open."
