A opportunistic man went behind the counter and stole money from a Chinese takeaway before running away with the cash.
PC Neil Bourn was walking the beat near the China Chef in Molesey Road, Hersham, when he got called at about 1.20pm on Wednesday, February 11.
He said: "The male entered the shop when the staff member was out the back, walked behind the counter and opened the till and obtained £100-120 cash. He ran off."
The staff gave chase towards the Barley Mow roundabout but lost sight of him.
The man is white and about 5ft 10in, and was wearing a dark coloured top, light coloured trousers or jeans and white trainers.
Call Surrey Police on 101, quoting reference 45150011810.
