Least cool getaway vehicle ever

An armed robber has been using a children's bicycle to make his escape.

The balaclava-clad man targeted two betting shops at the weekend – threatening staff with a hammer and a knife.

The first hold-up was at a bookie's in Cheltenham on Saturday evening.

'The offender threatened staff and made off with a child-size dark coloured mountain bike,' police said.

The robber who is about 1.65m (5ft 5in) and slim, held up a second shop on Sunday in the town and again pedalled off on the small bike.
