E-fit - robbery, Oakfield Road
Detectives investigating a robbery which happened in Oakfield Road, Anfield, on November 5, are appealing for witnesses.
The robbery took place at around 9am last Thursday as a woman was opening up a business premises in Oakfield Road.
Two men threatened the woman with a knife and forced her to open the safe before locking her in another room and stealing a substantial amount of cash.
The first offender was white, aged in his early 30s, around 5ft 10ins tall, of stocky build, with short brown shaven hair and a pock-marked complexion. He was wearing a short black padded jacket which was zipped up, black tracksuit bottoms and black trainers.
The second offender was white, aged in his early 30s, around 6ft tall, of medium build, with short black hair and a pale complexion.
They are believed to have left the scene on foot. The victim, who is 26, was left extremely shaken by the ordeal but was not physically hurt during the incident.
Detective Constable Andy Bason, who is investigating the robbery, said: "This was a nasty attack which has left the victim extremely traumatised. She suffered a terrible ordeal and I would urge anyone who has information about it to contact me.
"Oakfield Road is an extremely busy road and I am sure that someone must have noticed a man matching this description hanging around near to the junction with Thirlmere Road at around that time of day which may have seemed suspicious."
