A MAN armed with a knife robbed the 7-Eleven service station in Holt last night (August 13).

He entered the petrol station at about 10pm and made demands for cash and cigarettes. The victim, who was not harmed, complied and the offender fled with a sum of money.

The offender is described as Caucasian, about 185cm (6’1”) tall with a thin build. He was wearing a black balaclava, black long sleeved shirt and grey tracksuit pants.

He was last seen fleeing on foot towards the rear of the service station onto Starke Street, Holt.

Police are also seeking anyone who may have dash-cam footage of the area around the time of the incident.
