POLICE have issued a CCTV image of a man they would like to speak to in connection with a theft from a service station.

A man entered the Oakdale Service Station on Ripon Road, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, at about 6.45pm on Sunday, February 22 and purchased some items.

However, he put others straight into his bag and made no attempt to pay for them.

On his way out he was stopped, but he pushed a member of staff out of the way before running off in the direction of Ripon Road, leaving his bag behind.

Police believe the man pictured could help their inquires and anyone who identify him is asked to contact North Yorkshire Police on 101, select option 2 and ask for PC 176 Graham Wilson, or email graham.wilson@northyorkshire.pnn.police.uk

To remain anonymous pass information to Crimestoppers on 0800-555-111.
