A have-a-go hero delivery driver hit a robber on the head with a plank of wood after he raided a pharmacy armed with a knife.
Carl Llewellyn was also tackled by a chemist after storming the premises and demanding money and drugs. Meanwhile, an off-duty unleashed a furious tirade at the 38-year-old then apologised to staff and said "I've only come to get a covid test".
Liverpool Crown Court heard today, Thursday, that he targeted Green Cross Pharmacy in Bewsey, Warrington, at around 10.15am on July 5 this year. Derek Jones, prosecuting, described how customer Neil Schofield spotted Llewellyn and an unidentified male "acting shiftily" outside.
