A bottle shop attendant was threatened with a machete during an armed robbery at Kippax on Monday afternoon.
Police say a man and woman entered the store about 3.40pm before being confronted by staff and leaving.
After the attendant locked the doors, the man allegedly returned, smashed a glass panel and entered the store armed with a machete.
He allegedly threatened the attendant and demanded alcohol before stealing multiple bottles and fleeing.
Police are seeking witnesses to the incident.
