Police release footage of three people who robbed a Tokoroa superette, in the hope they can be identified.

Bay of Plenty police have released CCTV footage of three people who robbed a Tokoroa superette in the hope they can be identified.

The street footage posted to Facebook shows three offenders entering the store with hoodies on, and sprinting out of the Kauri St store in the direction of Hinau St.

The trio assaulted a female staff member and took cigarettes on Friday, May 13, just before 5pm.

Police say the offenders are hiding their faces, but hope someone will recognise them from their clothing and movements.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Tokoroa police on (07) 885 0100, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
