Police have issued CCTV images of a man sought in connection with an armed robbery in a Fife village.

A 76-year-old woman was approached by a knife-wielding man during the incident in Crossford at around 11pm on Friday May 4.

The man then forced her back inside her home, where he stole a number of items.

Officers believe the man shown in the CCTV footage may have information that can help their investigation, and have urged anyone who recognises him to get in touch.

He is described as being around 5ft 8 tall, of medium build with short light hair.

He spoke with a strong foreign accent, which could be eastern European, and may drive a black coloured Vauxhall Mokka.

He is believed to have links to Greenock and the Clackmannanshire area.

Detective inspector Kelly McEwan from Dunfermline CID said: "We have made significant progress in our investigation and are now issuing CCTV images of a man we would like to speak to in connection with the incident.

"Anyone who recognises him is urged to contact either police or Crimestoppers as soon as possible."
