The images, captured on the same day, show the three men suspected of the attack together in a group and individually. Mr Simpson, of Herne Hill, south London, had worked at the shop for the past three years. He was found by staff shortly after the attack at 2000 GMT, in an office area in which he was working. Post-mortem tests showed he died of a stab wound to the neck. Det Insp Lawrence Smith said: "Mr Simpson was completing his day's work when he was fatally assaulted during a suspected robbery at his store. "We believe that the three individuals involved lay in wait at the store and then confronted the assistant manager. "The description that we have of them is of three young black males."

Officers have appealed for information on anyone in the shopping centre who was seen "acting suspiciously" in the evening or witnessed the assailants fleeing the scene through the car park.

What makes people want to stab/kill someone during a robbery, just increases jail time and the chance of getting caught.Why do people do this? I know if I was going to do a robbery nobody getting killed would be my main concern seeing how there is CCTV all over and DNA etc.
