Footage released by West Midlands Police shows Leigh Barry threatening staff with a pair of garden shears. He also tried to break the glass repeatedly with a brick, before trying his luck with a chair. In the end, he grabbed a handful of pound coins and ran off, though not before dropping them all over the shop floor. Passers-by called the police after seeing him run into a nearby shop. Minutes later, he was arrested on suspicion of robbery. The 28-year-old was sentenced to four-and-a-half years behind bars at Warwick Crown Court. He got 18 months for the bookies robbery and an additional three years for his role in a raid on a bank in June last year. Report by Mark Morris.
