Police are appealing for information after the alleged robbery of a shop in Manly last year.

Between 3pm and 5pm on 29 September 2010, two women and one man entered the footwear retailer on The Corso at Manly.

Police believe that the man and one of the women distracted a shopkeeper while the third person allegedly stole an amount of cash from the register.

Detectives from Manly Local Area Command now wish to speak with people who were in the store at the time of the incident and who may be able to help with their inquiries.

The first person is described as being a female of Caucasian appearance, aged 25 to 30, 160 to 170 cm tall, with a slim build and dark, shoulder-length hair.

The second person is a male of Caucasian appearance, aged 25 to 35, 170 to 175cm tall, and with a slim build. At the time of the incident, he was clean shaven with dark, short hair.

The third person is a female of Pacific Islander/Maori appearance appearance, aged 30 to 40, 170 to 175cm tall, with a solid build and dark, shoulder-length hair.

“We’ve exhausted all other avenues of inquiry into this matter and are now appealing to the public for assistance,” said Acting Crime Manager at Manly Local Area Command, Acting Inspector Gemma Phillips.
