A CCTV image has been released of a hooded man after an attempted robbery at a service station in Dunbar.

The incident took place at The Rigg Service Station on Belhaven Road at around 7.40pm on Sunday.

Officers believe the man in the image can assist them with their enquiries and are appealing for anyone who recognises him to come forward.

The man is described as white and between 20 and 30 years old. He is roughly 5ft 10ins tall with a stocky build and slim legs.

In the image they've released he is wearing a dark grey hooded top that's accessorised with green and yellow writing. He's also wearing black gloves, black trousers and black trainers.

Detective Sergeant James Welsh of Dalkeith CID said: "This was a brazen attempt to rob a local business.

"Anyone with any information or who may recognise the male shown in the image is asked contact the police as soon as possible."

Those with information can contact Police Scotland on 101.
