Two people have been charged after a toy store was robbed days before Christmas. 

Police said three people entered the Capalaba shop in Brisbane’s south on Tuesday afternoon and took toys before fleeing. 

A staff member was assaulted, suffering minor injuries when she confronted the group.

Police said a 27-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman were arrested on Thursday after the toys were found along with drugs at an Eagleby address.

They were charged with a number of offences including robbery in company and possession of dangerous drugs.

They are due to appear in Cleveland Magistrates Court on Friday.

Police are still looking for a third person allegedly involved in the robbery. 

The recovered toys were donated to children in need by the business.
