ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to an aggravated robbery at the Liquor Legends store in Hawker last night (Monday, 18 June).
Around 9.40pm, a man armed with a knife entered the store and threatened a male employee, demanding cash.
The employee complied with the man’s demands and provided him with a sum of cash and a bottle of scotch. The man fled the store on foot and was last seen running along Belconnen Way.
The man was described as Caucasian in appearance, approximately 183cm (6″) tall with a slim build. He was wearing a dark coloured puffy jacket, dark coloured pants and a blue and white-striped balaclava.
Anyone who may be able to assist with the investigation is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers website on www.act.crimestoppers.com.au. Information can be provided anonymously.
