Police are hunting an armed robber who held up an off-licence in Henfield.
The man, who was wearing a white Halloween-type mask, ran into Unwins on Henfield High Street just before 9pm on Sunday night brandishing the gun in his right hand and demanded cash and cigarettes.
The takings were handed over in an Unwins carrier bag.
The man then ran down Bishop Lane, directly opposite the shop, where he disappeared into the darkness.
The man is around six foot, and was wearing a dark boiler suit, a black woollen hat with a white motif and light coloured rubber gloves.
Anyone with information should contact Detective Constable Steve Pincott on 0845 6070999.
