Police released CCTV after the horror raid.

At about 10.30pm on Saturday, December 19, a man climbed in through the drive-through window at KFC in Nottingham Road, Alfreton.

He produced a knife, threatened staff and demanded money before leaving with cash.

At the time, a Derbyshire police spokesman said: "The robber is described as being about 5ft 10in tall and stocky. He wore a red hat, red trousers and a red jacket over a black top. He had his face covered with what appears to be black tights or stockings."

Today, the spokesman confirmed nobody had been caught in connection with the crime.

Anyone with information should call Derbyshire police on 101, quoting crime reference number 54853/15, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
