Two 17-year-old youths are to stand trial in March accused of a masked raid at a Bradford newsagent.

The teenagers appeared at Bradford Crown Court today to deny robbing Sheila Patel of cash and cigarettes at a newsagent in Cemetery Road, Lidget Green, Bradford, on December 29, 2006.

One of them also pleaded not guilty to possessing a toy gun.

Both youths, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were granted bail until their trial at the crown court on March 10.
