Wiltshire Police are appealing for information to identify two men they'd like to speak to in relation to a shop lifting offence and altercation at a store in Swindon.

Around 5pm on Monday 4 December, two unknown males walked in to B&M Bargains Store at Transfer Bridges and selected a number of items, including groceries and children's clothes, and left the store without attempting to pay for them.

Then, on Wednesday 6 December there was an altercation between a member of staff at the store and two men after the shop worker challenged the couple he recognised from the previous incident.  The male member of staff was pushed by one of the two men before they left the store, however, he was uninjured.

Pictures of two men officers would like to speak to in relation to these incidents are attached.

If you recognise either or both of these men or can help with our enquiries in anyway, please contact police on 101 or anonymously, via Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.
