Lancashire Police have now stumped up a cash reward as they try to hunt down the 36-year-old whose last known address was in Bolton.

A security van was making a cash delivery to the ATM at the newsagents when three men wearing balaclavas approached the guards.

One of the robbers wielded a machette and a number of cash cassettes were stolen.

He should not be approached by the public.
