A hooded gang raided a corner shop and stole bottles of spirits.

CCTV footage seen by the Guardian shows a man, in his late teens or early 20s, enter the Seven in One shop in Newport Road, Leytonstone, at 7.30pm last Friday and approach the counter.

Up to five hooded accomplices then storm the shop and grab bottles worth up to £200 before running away.

The Guardian understands CCTV footage has been passed to officers, but police could not provide any details about the raid.

The raiders all wore hoods and scarves to conceal their faces, but are believed to be teenagers or in their early twenties.

No arrests have yet been made and the police are asking the public to get in touch with any information on 101.
