A shopkeeper at a Wyndham Vale discount store was threatened with a knife by an offender who demanded cash last month.
Police have been told a man entered the store at Wyndham Square shopping centre on Greens Road around 2.30pm on Monday February 8.
He browsed in the store for 10 minutes before taking a set of screwdrivers to the front counter.
When the shopkeeper asked for payment the man produced a knife and demanded the cash.
The victim opened the till and the offender stole a quantity of cash before fleeing the centre, heading towards Ambleside Avenue.
Detectives have released images and CCTV of a man who they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries.
Altona North Embona detectives are investigating.
