The incident happened at the Co-op on Maws Lane, Kimberley, at 7.45am on January 11.

The man jumped over the counter of the shop and started to shove cigarettes into the large builder’s sack he was carrying.

A struggle then took place between the staff and offender, which made him flee empty handed.

The man is described as white, aged 20-30, between 5 ft 8 ins and 5 ft 9 ins, of medium build with blue eyes.

He covered his face with a dark-coloured scarf and had his hood pulled up.

He was wearing grey jogging bottoms, a dark-coloured hooded top and gloves as well as carrying his Rhino-branded builder’s sack.

Anyone who recognises the man or has any information is urged to contact Notts Police on 101, quoting incident number 126 of January 11 2017.
