Police still looking for perpetrators

Two men wearing ski masks and brandishing guns robbed a pharmacy in Manacor on Saturday. Only one employee was in the shop at the time and the two men held him at gunpoint and made him hand over the contents of the till. The robbers then fled, making off with around 900 euros.

Police says the robbers drove away from the crime scene in the direction of Palma. Several raids across the city failed to produce any suspects.

The victim told police that one of the men had a shotgun and the other a pistol. Although shaken he was otherwise unhurt.
