This is the moment two men armed with a machete and a broken pool cue storm a pub before tying up staff and customers during a lunchtime robbery.
Staff behind the bar of the Strawberry Duck Pub in Manchester can be seen trying to run from the pair masked in balaclavas, before the footage cuts to them being restrained with cable ties alongside the landlord and visibly terrified customers.
Greater Manchester Police released the footage today in an attempt to identify the men, who escaped with cash following the incident on February 7.
Detective Constable Alexander Day said: "Almost four weeks has passed since the robbery and I hope that by releasing this footage it might help to identify who the two men responsible for this terrible incident are.
"This is still very much an active investigation and I would like to reassure anyone who may have been concerned by the events of that day that we are committed to finding the offenders.
"I would also like to pay tribute to the pub's owners and staff who managed to stay calm and reassure the customers who had been caught up in this terrifying situation.
"If anybody has any information at all, no matter how little you might think it is, then please contact the police."
Anybody with information is asked to contact police on 0161 856 4019 or through the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
