Staff at the Co-op in Halifax Road were threatened with a metal bar
Detectives are this morning questioning a man and a woman in connection with an armed robbery in Halifax Road.
The suspects demanded cash from the till and forced a woman sales assistant and a male security guard into a back room and demanded the combination for the safe.
The suspects fled the scene with cash and cigarettes.
The male assistant was taken to Huddersfield Royal Infirmary and has suffered no lasting damage.
The kiosk remained sealed off on Tuesday morning with police officers standing guard.
