A man wearing a Halloween mask and carrying a Mickey Mouse bag and Bunnings umbrella has stolen cash and cigarettes from a Queensland tobacconist, sparking a police hunt to catch him.

The man robbed the store on Argyll Street in Caboolture just north of Brisbane early on Friday morning.

He fled after a fight with the female employee that left her with lacerations to her arm and face before she was able to escape the store.

The man was wearing a brown Halloween mask, DriRider brand jacket, blue jeans, brown work boots, black gloves and an orange hi-vis shirt.

He was carrying a red Mickey Mouse branded Christmas bag and a red Bunnings branded umbrella.

The robber is approximately 185cm tall and has a fair complexion.

Anyone with information is urged to contact police.
