Police have released CCTV images of a man they want to speak to in connection with a robbery outside HSBC in Hanley.

A 59-year-old man was carrying a plastic bag full of takings into the bank when he was pushed from behind and the bag was snatched from him, at around 2.15pm on 31 October 2017.

A member of the public gave chase and bag was dropped, with the cash recovered.

The thief ran off in the direction of Gala Bingo in Albion Square.

A Staffordshire Police spokesperson said: "Anyone who knows the man in the CCTV images or who has any information is asked to call 101 and quote incident number 423 of 31 October."
