Police are appealing for information following an alleged armed robbery at a sandwich shop in Mayfield yesterday (Friday 20 September 2013).

About 8.30pm, a man entered the shop on Maitland Road, allegedly armed with a knife.

He approached a 34-year-old man working in the shop and allegedly demanded money from the cash register.

The man then fled the scene with a quantity of cash, heading towards a laneway behind a fast-food restaurant nearby.

Police were called and a crime scene was established. Investigators now wish to speak with a man described as being of Caucasian appearance, approximately 180cm tall, with a slim build and about 20 years old.

He was last seen wearing dark pants and a dark hooded jacket.
