This is the likeness of a man police are seeking in connection with a robbery in Stonehouse.

Police have released an efit of a suspect as they continue their investigation into a robbery in Stonehouse on Tuesday January 31.

Between 8.45pm and 9.30pm a 40-year-old woman was sat on the steps of the Youth Club in Elm Road when she was approached by two men who asked her for some cigarette papers.
