Police are tonight seeking the public’s assistance in locating two suspects who were involved in a robbery at the Somerset branch of Game Time.

Shortly before 6:00 p.m. today Tuesday 2nd February, 2021, a female employee at the Somerset branch of Game Time observed via CCTV, two males approaching the main entrance to the business which is located at the corner of Somerset Main Road and Hook and Ladder Lane.
