“Our enquiries are continuing and I want to appeal to anyone who was in the area and saw what happened, or who saw the suspect to make contact with us.
“He is described as 5’7 in height and of slim build. His face was covered with a grey scarf and he was wearing a grey top with the hood up and black trousers.
“The staff member, whilst physically unharmed, was left shaken by what was obviously a terrifying experience.”
