SIX people are wanted by police over the theft of cigarettes, alcohol and thousands of pounds worth of cash from a shop using distraction techniques.
Between 12.20pm and 12.32pm on November 13, six people entered the Premier Store in Upper Bridge Road, Chelmsford.
Four women spread out throughout the shop and selected items from the shelves and handed them to two men.
The men distracted the cashier by asking various questions about the items while one of the women entered the stock room and removed a four-figure sum of cash, 20 bottles of spirits and various cigarettes and tobacco.
Police have now released six CCTV images of people they want to speak to about the thefts.
Anyone with information is asked to contact PC Ross Ashcroft at Chelmsford CID on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
