Robbery at convenience store in Cathcart

Around 4:30pm, a man enters the One-o-One store in Aikenhead Road and threatens the female shopkeeper with an offensive weapon and demands money from the till.

He made off with a three-figure sum of cash. The member of staff was not injured but she has been left badly shaken by the incident.

The suspect is described as white, around 5 ft. 8 inches in height with an average build. He was wearing a dark blue hooded top with white writing and a logo on the front, dark, coloured trousers and dark, coloured shoes.

He was wearing a white face mask and spoke with a local accent.

Following the robbery, the suspect ran off up Aikenhead Road in the direction of Brannan Square.

Officers have been carrying out door-to-door enquiries and checking CCTV footage for any additional information.

Detective Sergeant Scott McNulty said: “Our enquiries so far have shown the suspect hanging around outside the store prior to the robbery taking place. I am appealing to people who was in the area around the time of the incident to contact us. In particular, I would ask motorists with dash cams to check their footage as it could have captured images which could assist in our investigation.”
