ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to an aggravated robbery in Waramanga around 5.30pm yesterday (Thursday, July 10), when an offender waved an edged weapon at staff and demanded money.

The offender is described as of Pacific Islander appearance, between 6’2” and 6’3” tall, with a solid build, and wearing sunglasses, a dark hooded jacket and light grey track pants. He attempted to hide his face with a red scarf or bandanna.

A sum of cash was handed over to the offender, who then fled in the direction of Nemarang Crescent, Waramanga.

Police resources were deployed to the area within minutes but were unsuccessful in locating the offender.

Investigations into this robbery are ongoing and police would urge anyone who may have any information which could assist, or anyone who may have witnessed the robbery and not yet come forward, to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or via the website at act.crimestoppers.com.au. Information can be provided anonymously.
