Detectives have issued CCTV images of a man they want
to trace following a robbery in Southport
AT around 8pm, on Saturday, 8 October 2016, a male entered
Leisure Time Amusements, on Tulketh Street, in Southport. It is believed the
male was armed with a kitchen knife. The male approached a cashier and demanded
cash. He then left the premises with a quantity of cash. The cashier was not
injured, but was left badly shaken by their ordeal. The male was wearing a
camouflage jacket, an orange hooded top, dark coloured tracksuit bottoms, dark
coloured trainers and sunglasses.
Detective Constable Anna Skelton said:- "Even though this man made
attempts to disguise his identity his clothing is particularly distinctive. This
was a Saturday evening in the middle of Southport Town Centre. I am sure that
somebody would have seen this man either approaching or leaving the premises or
may recognise the clothing. This was a terrifying ordeal for the cashier, who
was left badly shaken up, and it is vital that we catch this man and bring him
to justice."
