Detectives have released a computer-generated image of a man involved in a violent robbery at Coffs Harbour during which a man was shot.
About 6.50pm on Thursday, June 16, 2011, a 20-year-old man was in a laneway near a Coffs Harbour shopping centre when he was confronted by a man who demanded his phone and wallet.
The man told police he was shot in the shoulder as the offender ran off with his wallet.
He then attempted to walk through the shopping centre before an unknown woman came to his aid and contacted emergency services.
The victim received treatment for a non life-threatening injury to his shoulder.
It’s approaching the one year anniversary of the incident and police are appealing to the public for any information that might be able to identify the man involved or otherwise assist their investigation.
The man depicted in the COMFIT image is described as being of Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander appearance, about 180cm tall with a slim build and dark scruffy hair.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
