ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to an aggravated robbery that occurred at the Caltex Service Station in Kaleen this morning (Tuesday, May 26).
Around 1.55am, a man carrying a green shopping bag entered the service station, produced a knife and pointed it towards the console operator making demands for cash.
The operator complied with the demands of the man who then left the store with a small sum of cash.
The male offender is described as being Caucasian in appearance, early to mid-20’s, approximately 183cm (6’) tall, slim build and was wearing a black hooded jumper.
No one was injured during the armed robbery.
