Hope everyone is ok.

A post office worker was threatened with a shotgun during an attempted robbery on Tyneside.

A man wearing a black ski mask brandished the double-barrelled weapon at Crookhill post office in Gateshead.

He demanded money, but the member of staff quickly escaped into the rear of the post office and the raider fled empty handed.

Anyone with information about the incident, on Friday afternoon, should contact Northumbria Police.
