Police say he made off with “a significant quantity” of drugs.

Neither woman was injured but both have been left very upset by the incident.

The suspect is white, 6 ft, about 40 years of age and had a Scottish accent.

He wore a black jacket, a black hooded top with the hood over his face and blue jeans.

He ran off along Copland Road towards Ibrox Underground after the robbery.
