A newagents in Larkfield has been targeted twice by thieves who forced their way in.
The latest incident at Martin's Newsagents in Martins Square happened five weeks after it was raided for cash and cigarettes.
In the latest incident, on Saturday, June 16, two men forced their way in around 2.45pm.
Once inside, they stole a DVD player; a large quantity of cash and cigarettes.
Police are not currently linking the two incidents.
DC Tony Hatcher said: “The quality of the CCTV is very good and I would urge the public to study these images and anyone who may recognise the men pictured should contact us. Alternatively, the men who appear in the images may wish to rule themselves out of our enquiries.”
Police have released CCTV images of two men they would like to speak to in connection with the incident.
In the previous incident on Friday, May 11, four men burst in at around 5am, wearing balaclavas, and brandishing weapons.
The gang – thought to all be men – threatened the staff, before stealing cash and cigarettes.
If you can help police with either incident, call 101 or Kent Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. If you are calling about the most recent incident, quote crime reference YY/10692/12.
