– Moments later the young cashier was floored by a single blow after the hooded attacker slammed the metal barrel into her face.
– Her eye was so swollen and bruised that she couldn’t open it for days and she was convinced she had permanently lost her sight.
– The man, whose face was concealed with a scarf, then tried to smash his way into the till at the shop before fleeing empty-handed.
– Candice, a part-time sales assistant, was alone on the shop floor when the robber entered at around 7.30pm.
– As her eye heals she has had to wear an eye patch which has left her looking like a pirate – but she is just thankful to be alive.
– Candice said: ‘This guy came around the counter and shouted ‘it’s a stick-up’.
– ‘He held this weapon a few inches from my face and just lunged at me – it went straight into my face.
– ‘I hit the floor, I was completely shocked and tried to back into a corner to get away from him.
– ‘He was shouting at me the whole time to open the till and I just shouted back ‘I don’t know how’.
– ‘I managed to hit the panic button but I was scared he would hit me again when I couldn’t get any money out.
– ‘He started trying to force it open but when he couldn’t he left with nothing.
– ‘I had a black eye, it swelled up straight away and was so bad that I thought I was going to be blind.
– ‘As soon as he hit me I couldn’t open it, I tried to open it with my fingers but I couldn’t see anything except big blurry outlines.
– ‘I got to the hospital and had to wait three and a half hours before they gave me some eye drops to ease the pain and sent me home to recover.
– ‘It’s opened up a bit now but it hurts to move my eyeball and it looks awful!
– ‘I didn’t even do anything and he attacked me, it’s scary to think what he would do if someone resisted him.
– ‘I’ve not been back to work yet but I can’t afford not to.
– ‘It’s completely changed my life, even a trip to the supermarket brings back bad memories.’
