Hunt continues over East Maitland Hold Up

Police are appealing for information following an armed robbery at East Maitland earlier this year.

Police have now released CCTV images of the man, who has been described as Caucasian, aged in his 20s, around 170cm tall of an average build with a patchy, light brown beard.

The man was wearing a black hooded jumped with a green jacket over the top, with black tracksuit pants, black shoes and a black baseball cap.
