We're trying to identify a man in connection with an incident in Dursley this morning, Saturday 3 May. 

Shortly before 10am a man went into a shop on Silver Street and stole an item.

He was challenged by a member of staff and the man then revealed a bladed weapon he was carrying. He then left in the direction of Uley.
