A MAN brandishing a machete held up a post office delivery van in Radcliffe yesterday.
Staff had pulled up outside the Radcliffe Hall post office on Cross Lane at 11.25am when a man approached and threatened them with the weapon, forcing them to hand over their delivery, which included vouchers and stamps.
The man made a getaway in an L registered Mitsubishi people carrier, which was later abandoned in Howard Street, Radcliffe.
The robber is believed to have then transferred into an R registered dark green BMW with two other men, which was also later abandoned in Cross Street, Radcliffe.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Whitefield CID on 0161 856 8213 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
