A 39-year-old man, Alex Shirley, was sentenced to five years and three months in prison for an armed robbery at a Runcorn Morrisons Daily store on October 16, 2025.
He threatened a staff member at knifepoint, stole £1,089 from the till and additional money from a safe, along with cigarettes and vapes, before fleeing.
Police swiftly recovered the stolen items, knife, and clothing, including a balaclava, from nearby bushes and arrested Shirley after he was seen acting suspiciously.
