On April 22, 2011, police were called to a petrol station on Pittwater Road in Narrabeen in response to an armed robbery.
A 20-year-old man was allegedly threatening a staff member with a sawn-off rifle.
He left the store with a haul of cash and was last seen running down Robertson Street.
There were no reported injuries.
Some of the man’s clothes were found on The Esplanade after the incident.
Detectives at the time could not identify the man.
Today, there are renewed calls for public assistance to help identify the man.
“Today marks the 14th anniversary of when the hold-up occurred and we are asking for help from the public,” Inspector Mick Boutouridis said.
“Despite the passage of time we never give up on trying to solve serious offences, especially when a firearm is produced.
“As part of our investigation into this incident, we have released images of a man who may be able to assist with our inquiries.
“Someone must know something about this case, and we are calling on anyone who knows anything to call Manly Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.”
He is described as being of Caucasian appearance and about 25 years old at the time.
He was 170cm tall with a medium build and short, spiky dark coloured hair.
He had a tattoo of barbed wire on his right upper arm.
At the time of the alleged robbery, he was wearing a white cap with a brown jumper that had red patterns on the sleeve, as well as light blue track pants and dark coloured gloves with dark-coloured shoes.
