Lesson IV
Theme: Photofit
Bank Robbery
Do you know this robber?
Police are searching for а man who is wanted for questioning about а string of burglaries in the Manchester area, which they suspect may be connected.
In the first of two recent incidents, а man tied up a woman in her own house in the early hours of the morning and escaped with goods valued at around £2,000. They included items of jeweler, а stereo, а video recorder and а colour TV set. She managed to free herself, unhurt, after he fled. She described him as white, around 5'8", in his late twenties, well-built, clean-shaven, with а pointed nose and straight dark hair.
Two days later а man wearing а stocking mask broke into а factory in the same area and got away with cash of around £3,000. А man fitting the description above was later seen driving away from the scene in an old blue Escort van. Police warm that this man could be armed and therefore dangerous. They have issued the Photofit pictures above and ask the public to contact them immediately if they have any information.
