Cash stolen and man assaulted during robbery at Shrewsbury pub
Police are looking to speak to two men in connection with a robbery at The Featherbed in Shrewsbury.
A man was woken up by banging at The Featherbed pub on Battlefield Road just after 5.30am on Saturday 5 November.
Two men threatened the victim and demanded he open the safe before assaulting him with an unknown object - believed to be a crow bar.
The victim opened the safe and an amount of cash was stolen by the offenders, who then left the premises in a vehicle parked in the public car park at the rear of the pub.
This vehicle is believed to be light coloured and a similar size and shape to a Ford Fiesta Titanium.
The victim received treatment for his injuries, which weren't life-threatening.
The man carrying the unknown object is described as white, around 5ft 5in tall, and of medium build.
He was wearing a black balaclava, dark coloured boiler suit, dark coloured gloves and spoke with a Liverpudlian accent.
A second man is described as slightly taller, also of medium build, and was dressed in the same way.

"The victim received medical attention for his injuries which fortunately weren't serious and I would like to reassure the local community that we are treating this as an isolated incident.
"We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who may have seen anyone or any vehicles in the area of the pub during the time and ask any witnesses to contact us."
