We need your help in tracking down a man after money was stolen from a shop in Burton-on-Trent.
The suspect went inside the store on Church Hill Street, just before 10.25am yesterday morning (19 February). He sprayed liquid on a member of staff working there, which we think was petrol, and made threats with a lighter.
He left after taking money from the register.
Thankfully, the victim was uninjured.
After the suspect left, we know he walked in the direction of Bearwood Hill Road, Burton.
He was wearing a green bucket hat with a grey mask, green fleece and dark tracksuit bottoms. He was also holding a white carrier bag.
If you have any information that can help us or any CCTV of the area at the time, please get in touch. Call us on 101, quoting incident 176 of 19 February, or message us using Live Chat on our website.
