These unknown individuals engaged in a conversation with the woman, and it is then believed another individual, a woman, discreetly stole the victim’s purse, containing almost £900, whilst she was distracted.
Enquiries are ongoing, including reviewing of CCTV, and police have now identified two men who they would like to speak to in connection with the incident.
They were in the shop at the time and could have information that may assist the investigation.
