POLICE have released images to see if the public can identify a man they believe committed an aggravated robbery of a Deakin supermarket yesterday (January 5).
About 8.15am, police allege the man, believed to be armed with a knife, confronted a staff member at the IGA Supermarket and demanded cash.
The staff member complied and the man left, walking behind a nearby gymnasium and west along MacGregor Street with the stolen cash in a red shopping bag.
He is described as having red hair, fair skin, and freckles. He was wearing black clothing, which partially covered his face, and a dark cap.
Anyone with information, including dash-cam or CCTV footage of the MacGregor Street area around 8.15am Sunday should call 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.
