A GUNMAN demanded entry to a garage in an attempted armed robbery.
Now police have released this picture and have asked for your help.
A man with a gun went to the Texaco garage in Tolladine Road in the early hours of the morning and demanded entry.
He was unable to gain entry and fled the scene on foot.
The man was wearing a black jacket, black joggers and black trainers with white soles. He was carrying a black rucksack.
The incident happened at 1.25am on Sunday, August 13.
A Texaco garage employee, who did not want to be named, said: "At first he (the gunman) was hanging around, and waited until a taxi driver drove off the forecourt.
"He was by the bushes and car wash.
"The night guy was here - he was shaken, but he is fine.
"He had three days off afterwards, it was just him here at time, there were no customers.
"He had a black handheld gun."
If anyone recognises the man or has any other information that could help police with their enquiries they should call 101 and quote incident 64s of August 13.
