Merseyside Police are appealing for witnesses to a robbery in Liverpool where a 26-year-old woman was threatened with a knife.
The robbery took place in Oakfield Road, Anfield, at around 9am on Thursday November 5, when a woman was opening up a business premises.
Two men threatened the woman with a knife and forced her to open the safe before locking her in another room and escaping on foot with "a substantial amount of cash."
The first offender was white, aged in his early 30s, of stocky build, around 5ft 10ins tall, with short brown shaven hair and a "pock-marked complexion." He was wearing a zipped up short black padded jacket, black tracksuit bottoms and black trainers.
The second man police are looking for is also believed to be in his early 30s, medium build, with short black hair and a pale complexion.
Police say the victim was "left extremely shaken by the ordeal but was not physically hurt."
Detective Constable Andy Bason, who is investigating the robbery, has urged people who have information about this "nasty attack" to come forward.
"Oakfield Road is an extremely busy road and I am sure that someone must have noticed a man matching this description hanging around near to the junction with Thirlmere Road at around that time of day which may have seemed suspicious."
Anyone with information should call 0151 777 4808 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111
