Detectives have released images of a man who may be able to assist them with their investigation into the armed robbery of a pizza restaurant on Beenleigh Road at Kuraby on February 14.

At around 7:00am a man disabled the external security cameras at the business before leaving the scene.

The same man is believed to have returned to the business at around 8.10am and forced entry to the business.

The man was confronted by an employee, who he threatened with a knife, before he fled from the scene in a black Suzuki Swift (similar to pictured).

No one was physically injured during the incident.

The man (pictured) is described as Caucasian in appearance, aged in his 30s, approximately 170cm tall, of a medium build with black hair.
