A MAN armed with a baseball bat robbed Daisy Hill Cricket Club in Westhoughton.

He demanded money from a member of staff at the club, but as there was no money in the till he went behind the bar and stole cash from the safe.

Det Con Karl Chandler said: “The man is described as being heavily freckled and local people may recognise the E-fit we have produced.

“If anyone recognises the man or has any information about the robbery we would urge you to contact police.”
