Police are hunting three masked men after an armed robbery at a Bradford post office.
The raiders, believed to be wearing hoods and balaclava masks, struck at Bell Dean Post Office, Greenway Drive, Allerton, shortly before 10.30am today.
A police spokesman said it is thought the men were carrying a handgun and sawn-off shotgun. They may have got away with a quantity of cash.
No shots were fired and the male staff member threatened by the gang was unhurt.
The police helicopter was scrambled to help in the search for the robbers.
