A KNIFE was held against a woman shop assistant's arm during a raid at Poundstretcher in Malvern.
The incident left the woman badly shaken but unhurt. She handed a small sum of cash to the thief, who made good his escape.
The raid took place at about 6.15pm last Thursday (December 6). Police searched the area around the Enigma Park store and are pursuing several leads.
The man is described as about 5ft 7in, of medium build, clean-shaven and in his mid-20s. He was wearing a dark baseball cap and a dark, padded, waist-length coat.
"It's possible that people in the area may have information that will help us identify this man," said DC Andy Watkins.
The police can be contacted on 01905 723888 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
