Recognise this man seen lurking near Shoreditch High Street in east London following a violent £24,000 Rolex robbery?

Detectives think he was involved when a 31-year-old man was attacked and robbed of his 24 carat gold watch at Shoreditch House.

The image released by police is taken from CCTV footage showing a suspicious character around 9pm on September 11 in Ebor Street, off Bethnal Green Road, half-an-hour after the hold-up.

The suspect in his late 20s who ran out of the building towards Bethnal Green Road is described as black with short hair, 5ft 11ins tall, who was wearing a grey hooded top, light jeans, light brown shoes and a light brown satchel.

Witnesses or anyone with information are being urged to call Hackney CID on 101 or anonymously Crimestoppers on 0800-555111.
