A man is still on the run after an attempted street robbery in Insch.
It's believed he threatened a man with a knife on Commerce Street at around 7:10pm on Thursday, before running off into nearby woodland.
It sparked a large police search, but the man hasn't been found.
He is around 6ft tall, with short brown hair and was wearing a cap.
Detective Sergeant John Lumsden said: "This appears to have been an isolated incident and officers are following a positive line of enquiry. Although he wasn't injured it has naturally been upsetting for the man involved. Officers would ask that anyone with information contacts them on 101 or Crimetsoppers on 0800 555 111 to remain anonymous."
