The victim was uninjured, but a firearm was seen and police launched a search for the two suspects.
The man is described as white, in his mid-late 20s, with short mousey brown hair and wearing dark blue jeans and a black puffer jacket.
The woman is described as being late teens or early 20s, of slim build, with long blonde hair and wearing a red coat with a fur trim around the hood.

“Enquiries to establish the full circumstances and the identity of the suspects is still ongoing.
“The road closures have since been lifted and we appreciate the patience from those affected by the disruption.
